I’ve now turned browscap off on all my sites as I can’t afford the performance hit and potential white-screening/ unavailability, and accuracy without it was always good enough for me. Perhaps best to have heuristic as the default, or give the choice at install time, given the serious issues that have been caused by browscap? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[SlimStat Analytics] wp-crash after update to 4.4.3](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-crash-after-update-to-4-4-3/) * [robf](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robf/) * (@robf) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-crash-after-update-to-4-4-3/page/4/#post-8318233) * Thanks Jason, that sounds like a good compromise – understood that you’re trying to get the best accuracy, and it might be a bit complicated having a 3 way choice( browscap / browscap lite / heuristic) but that would probably accommodate your wide range of plugin users the best.

Thanks, Jason and team. * May be worth pointing out that on installation the new version sets method to browscap over-riding “heuristic” setting. * Rob - This reply was modified 9 years, 8 months ago by [robf](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robf/). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[SlimStat Analytics] Browscap doesn’t work](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/browscap-doesnt-work/) * [robf](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robf/) * (@robf) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/browscap-doesnt-work/page/2/#post-8246639) * Does anyone have SlimStat running browscap under php5.6 **and** working correctly( i.e. no “?” icons)? * If so that would be a good starting point for further investigation. * Whether people have brought up the issue or not, according to WordPress PHP5.6 is the current recommended minimum version – see [https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/](https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/) and WordPress’s own statistics page at [https://wordpress.org/about/stats/](https://wordpress.org/about/stats/) claims nearly 25% of installations use it. - This reply was modified 9 years, 8 months ago by [robf](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robf/).
