 * I installed the plugin and when I click “Activate the plugin” after the install
   it shows me this message.
 * `Plugin activation failed. Your WordPress installation doesn't meet the minimum
   requirements.`
 * I’m using `nginx`, `php-fpm` and `mysql`, what are the minimum requirements beside
   those?

 * A quick glance at the code shows it requires PHP 5.2 or higher and the following
   PHP extensions:
 * ‘filter’, ‘json’, ‘pcre’, ‘SPL’

 * Hey [@gmanu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gmanu/),
 * I looked at the code like PeterBooker said and checked my installation, all the
   extensions where installed but the plugin continue to give me the same message.
