 * After WordPress updated to 5.1, the site no longer works. I got a message block
   saying PHP needs to be updated, so I contacted my hosting company and they upgraded
   to EasyApache4 as well as installed PHP7. The site still does not work and the
   message to update PHP is still there. Any ideas?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fphp-update-required%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_
