 * Hi, I really like the look of your plugin. It does everything I need in terms
   of supporting custom taxonomies and post-types – better than any other map plugins
   I have looked at.
 * Unfortunately I am having an issue with the map preview not appearing in the 
   backend. Looking via console I found there is a 500 type error being caused by
   the locate-anything-preview.php file. As a test I installed it on another WordPress
   site and found it worked fine there. So I went through the drill of disabling
   other plugins and swapping templates but this didn’t sort the issue. I got in
   touch with my hosting provider and they said it looked like a PHP compatibility
   issue. Having checked the PHP versions the two sites are running different versions:
   7.0.21 on the site with the issue (5.6.31 where it is fine).
 * Is there any know compatibility issue that might explain the problem?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fphp-version-issue-3%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * I think the PHP version suggestion was probably not correct. I simplified the
   site structure, from having had all other WordPress files except initial index.
   php in a sub directory to having all together, and resolved that 500 error. But
   there is still an issue with the map preview unfortunately. I will mark this 
   thread as resolved and post another thread with the new details.
