 * The use of the depreciated .split() function is not supported by php7. Any plans
   to update the code to use .explode() or another supported alternative?

 * No where in the codebase is split used. Where did you find it?
 * FWIW this plugin has been tested with the latest PHP version (>= 7)

 * Ah, my mistake. It seems I was looking at an old version pulled from here: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/ppress/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ppress/)
 * Is the only distribution of this plugin paid now?

 * There has always and continually will always be a Free and paid version.
 * Free version is what is hosted here.

 * Is the free version 1.4.4? That’s where I found several instances of split, if
   that’s true only the paid version would be compatible with php7, correct?
 * If not, could you please supply a link to the most recent free version?
 * My thanks, useful plugin.

 * How the you find the instances? If you found them then you should tell me what
   file and line there were in.
 * I presume you are using a linting too such as php7 compatibility checker. They
   are not the truest of ways to test php7 compatibility.
 * I can categorically tell you that both free and paid ([https://profilepress.net/pricing](https://profilepress.net/pricing))
   are battle tested on php 7. Even my local development server runs on php 7.1 
   and it works fine.

 * You are correct, tests passed on my end. Thanks for the quick replies.
