 * Hi,
 * I ran the “PHP Compatibility Checker” plugin to see if this plugin is compatible
   with PHP 7.2
 * Unfortunately, for any reason, the “Drop Shadow Boxes” plugin was skipped as 
   it was too large, according to “PHP Compatibility Checker”, to scan before the
   server killed the process.
 * Then I still don’t know if the plugin is compatible with PHP 7.2
 * Thank You !
 * Robert

 * Hey Steve,
 * The plugin shows a warning in the checker, you may wish to address this with 
   the **freemius** team.

 * [@snaphappyme](https://wordpress.org/support/users/snaphappyme/) This is a false
   positive. The Freemius team have been aware of this for a long time. The function
   only exists for backwards compatibility and is no longer used.
