 * I am abandoning this plugin since it appears they do not want to support PHP 
   7. I too get same error as above checking PHP 7 compatibility. If it is a false
   positive at least have the courtesy to leave a reply. Not sure how you expect
   people to upgrade to pro if the most basic needs are not being met on the lite
   version.
