    My site was set to auto update and it went down today after the latest updates, I disabled the plugin via FTP to get the site back online but can not reactivate the plugin, I tried reverting to an old plugin version 2.0.0 and I get the same issue. When trying to activate the plugin I get the following error.

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘[‘ in /wp-content/plugins/user-access-manager/user-access-manager.php on line 168

    Your PHP Version is the problem. Beginning from version 2.0.0 UAM requires at least PHP 5.4. You have two options:

    1. Download an older verion here https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/user-access-manager/advanced/ at the “PREVIOUS VERSIONS” section. Delete the current version under wp-content/plugins and upload the older version.
    2. Update your PHP version to a version higher or equal PHP 5.4.

    I would recommend the second option, because the latest version of PHP 5.3 is more than four years old and didn’t received any security updates since that, which is a huge security issue on your site. Use at least PHP 5.6 which still receives security updates and is full compatible to PHP 5.3. I’m sure your hoster will assist you.

    Just as a heads up, I am running this plugin on a site I manage which was using PHP 5.4.16, and I encountered an Internal Server Error as well. This was the highest version of PHP 5.4.x they had available. Switching to PHP 7.0.18 was also an option (oddly, with nothing in between), and the site now works with the plug-in using PHP 7.

    @wesselej That’s strange.
