 * Hi, I’m testing this plugin with WP 4.5.3 and php 7, and I get the next error:
 *  preg_replace(): The /e modifier is no longer supported, use preg_replace_callback
   instead in /home/smnecnmc-dev/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wp-htaccess-control/
   wp-htaccess-control.php
 * Do you have any update for php 7?

 * anyone having this issue when upgrading to php7
    THE SOLUTION is to replace line
   this `$rewrite_rules = unserialize( preg_replace ( '!s:(\d+):"(.*?)";!se', "'
   s:'.strlen('$2').':\"$2\";'" , $rewrite_rules ) );`
 * with this
    `$rewrite_rules = unserialize( preg_replace_callback('!s:(\d+):"(.*?)";!
   s' , function (array $m) { return sprintf('s:%d:"%s";', strlen($m[2]), $m[2]);},
   $rewrite_rules));`
