 * You should update your php instead of waiting for me to change the readme.txt.

 * Although deprecated, if you want to update the plugin without updating php, you
   can download the plugin as a zip file and install it by rewriting “Requires PHP:
   8.0” in the readme.txt to your version.

 * Thanks for the advice.
 * Your plugin is the first out of 20+ used on my production WordPress site imposing
   PHP8 migration, which requires intensive testing.
 * Why forcing the migration, if your code is compliant with previous PHP7x version?
