 * Hi,
 * This is happening because you have a PHP version that is lower than PHP 5.4.
 * The plugin requires a minimum version of 5.4, and we strongly advise to use PHP
   7 or above, for performance and security reasons.
 * Your hosting provider should be able to update your server to a more recent PHP
   version for you.

 * With the latest update, the plugin requires PHP 5.3 instead of PHP 5.4, which
   can help some of our users still on an older PHP version.
