 * In the file /lib/phpExcel/PHPExcel/Shared/PCLZip/pclzip.lib.php line 4855, it
   is using set_magic_quotes_runtime. However this function has been removed as 
   of PHP 7.
    [http://php.net/manual/en/function.set-magic-quotes-runtime.php](http://php.net/manual/en/function.set-magic-quotes-runtime.php)
 * File /lib/phpExcel/PHPExcel/CachedObjectStorage/SQLite.php is using SQLlite, 
   however that was removed as of PHP 5.4.
 * Can you tell me what steps are being made to fix these errors?

 * Hi there, thank you for reporting,
 * Does the plugin throw fatal errors for there lines?
 * We plan to update all libraries and probably raise the minimum PHP version requires
   to 5.6.
    However on our development machines we use PHP7 and the plugin works
   correctly, as we believe these deprecated functions are not called from the plugin.
   Can you please let us know if it fails for you? Thanks
