 * We run this plugin on a lot of our managed sites. This one (and one other) after
   the update to 1.8, look fine from the front end, but when trying to access wp-
   admin, we get an error message: “Sorry, Inactive User Logout requires PHP 5.6
   or higher. Talk to your Web host about moving you to a newer version of PHP.”
 * The site given in the link on this topic however is running PHP 7.0. I have verified
   this through both the cPanel and a phpinfo page.
 * We have had to manually disable this plugin. Is this something that should’ve
   been taken care of in the updates to 1.8.3?
 * What should we do to get this plugin working again?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Ferror-message-blocking-site-on-php-7%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hey Bet,
 * That should not have happened. Well, anyway i have fixed this in the new update.
   Please remove the old plugin and install the latest 1.8.4 version.
 * Sorry for the trouble caused.
 * Thanks
