 * Hello [@rodrigo333](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rodrigo333/)
 * Have checked and see the error that you are having is an incompatibility with
   PHP version 5.5.
 * PHP stopped support for 5.5 in July 2016 and strongly recommend that it is not
   used due to security vulnerabilities – see here
    [http://php.net/eol.php](http://php.net/eol.php)
 * WordPress Requirements state that to run WordPress system config should be
    PHP
   version 7.2 or greater MySQL version 5.6 or greater OR MariaDB version 10.0 or
   greater HTTPS support
 * You can read more about that here [https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/](https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/)
 * There is a sample letter that you can use on that page to send to your host to
   upgrade your system. As soon as you upgrade to PHP 5.6 or higher you will not
   have the issue.
 * If you have not done so please access your install via FTP and delete the plugin
   while you organize your host to upgrade your servers PHP version
 * Regards
    Steve
