    Hi

    I set up my website last month, and installed Stripe as one of the payment methods. Everything was working fine with it, until I just had someone put an order through and paid via bank deposit, so I checked the payment methods and noticed stripe is no longer an option. I have updated Stripe, it says is it up to date but then I have this message at the top of the page saying WooCommerce Stripe – The minimum PHP version required for this plugin is 5.6.0. You are running 5.4.45.

    What do I need to update to get Stripe back?

    The minimum PHP version required for this plugin is 5.6.0. You are running 5.4.45.

    Contact your host and ask how you choose a recent version of PHP. 5.6 is good, 7.0 is better!

    Whether it’s simple or not depends on your host. Where are you hosting?

    sorry have removed my post I changed my mind, but cant delete it. I changed my mind about posting because we have several servers and the server in question IS upgradeable. I thought it was on another server we have which we cannot upgrade PHP on because they are Centos 6 with 32bit. Using Virtualmin/Webmin. Yes we should upgrade them but its a massive task when you have so many websites on them. You cant have these latest versions of PHP on Centos 6 32bit apparently.

    There was no warning on the upgrade. There should be an option to NOT upgrade, OR you have a different plugin released for such a major change. We choose to keep the old servers, so we should not have had the upgrade.

    Luckily after I posted I realised I was on a different server, so its not so serious I can upgrade, but if it were on the server we cant upgrade on then it would be a serious issue. I know now we must NEVER upgrade the Stripe plugin on any site on that server else it will break and then we’re screwed.

    Or update your servers to use a current and supported version of php — 5.6 or 7. (And CentOS 7, while you’re at it.)

    The solution may be to set up a new server running PHP 7 and migrate sites on at time.

    Anyhow, not upgrading plugins really isn’t an option. Good luck!
