# PHP 7 required

 * I don’t mind a plugin having a required PHP version, but when it stops all pages
   on the site from loading, that is unreasonable.
 * Due to problems with my hosting company, the version of PHP was switched to an
   earlier version and suddenly all pages on the website displayed a message about
   F12 requiring PHP 7.
 * It seems to me that if a plugin cannot work with some of the available support
   software, then it should fail silently, or with a log message, but it should 
   not take down the entire site!

 * [@dingbaloo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dingbaloo/) We’ve updated the
   plugin. Instead of throwing an error message on php version missmatch it will
   disable itself.
 * This will not affect the error message you’ll receive on switching your wordpress
   to an older version.
