# Fatal Error when saving settings

 * Hi there, I’m having issues with the install on another site I work on (happy
   to provide site details in email to protect clients site).
 * Whenever I make any changes, I get the following error:
 * “Fatal error: Call to undefined function boolval() in /home/content/28/7270728/
   html/main/wp-content/plugins/gdpr/admin/class-gdpr-admin.php on line 174”
 * In some cases it will save the changes I make regardless of the error message,
   but not when trying to update the settings to put together the cookies we have
   on site.
 * I love this plugin and want to use it on my clients site as I have with another
   client, but at the moment it’s unworkable.
 * Any help will be gratefully appreciated.
 * P.S. If this is related to the PHP version of my site, I am in the process of
   upgrading to 5.6

 * This is due to a PHP version older than required. We need at least 5.6.
 * Ask your hosting provider to update it.
