 * I’ve updated the PHP version for my site in cPanel to 7.1 (the server uses 5.4,
   but my site uses 7.1). What else do I need to do to activate this plugin?

 * For now change the following line in the readme.txt file from
    `Requires PHP:
   7.2 or greater` to `Requires PHP: 7.2`.
 * I put or greater in which is causing the error.
