    Hi newbii,

    This is a false positive. It’s 100% safe to ignore these warnings. I’m unsure why they’re being flagged as errors as they aren’t.

    Our main test instances are using the latest version of PHP and the minimum version WordPress allows for. We actively develop with both in mind so you have nothing to worry about in terms of compatibility.

    It’s checking against PHP 5.3, it’d be great to support that version as well, some servers are still falling behind.

    Is it possible to change the syntax for that one line?

    Best regards

    Hi Newbii,

    Oh! Very sorry for the misunderstanding. I’ve logged this issue on our GitHub and I’ve sent a message to Braam about it so it (hopefully) gets seen too soon.

    Regardless, I would strongly recommend getting in contact with your hosting provider about upgrading PHP. I understand this is really out of your control so I’m not blaming you for using such an old version but if we don’t pressure hosts to keep things updated, they’ll sadly never update until things simply stop working. 🙁
