 * Hello,
    We are using Akeeba Backup with WordPress and PHP 5.3.8. Akeeba explains
   that the minimum release for PHP is 5.3.4. This is not exact, they use they are
   using the short way [] for the array() function, only available from PHP 5.4.
   So this is not a question, just a warning for user in the situation as us because
   we lost a lot of time understanding the problem. Best Regards AR

 * As you use a commercial theme/plugin and need support, please use their official
   support channel. We feel they are best equipped to support their products.

 * Commercial products are [not supported in these forums](https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/forum-welcome/#do-not-post-about-commercial-products).
   You are their customer; I am sure they will have no problem supporting you there.
 * PS: It would be good to use PHP 5.6 or greater for you site rathe than sticking
   with 5.3
