 * Hi,
 * Looks like that is caused by an old version of php. The plugin currently requires
   at least php 5.3. I will look into making it compatible with older versions. 
   If it’s possible, you can upgrade your php and the plugin should work again.

 * Hi. First time here!
 * I´m running a live video channel, [http://www.elcaminoacasa.com](http://www.elcaminoacasa.com),
   wich is NOT broadcasting 24/7. So, the moments we´re not alive, there´s nothing
   on the screen. The main screen is a Ustream code shown trought an Iframe, couse
   the theme go crazy if I use a widget like “text” with the code. So, here´s my
   question: Is there any widget/code I can use to switch between iframes or codes
   that let me broadcast video codes fron othe channels and can be configured by
   days, hours and minutes and do the job? My goal, any time my live broadcast starts
   or ends, the code switchs between my channel and the others.
    I found “Timed 
   widget”, and what they say it does is just what I need. But: a – don´t refresh
   live (got to F5 the page to see the change) b – don´t work (shows an error on
   line 33 and I couldn´t find the support).
 * thanks for any aswer.

 * [@ukmaceman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ukmaceman/) – I too received
   that error at first, but after going back and creating a fresh code block and
   calendar it started working.
 * As for hosting, I’m using HostGator which is using 5.2.17. I attempted to activate
   5.3 but it never changed my version page so I’m assuming that didn’t work.
