 * Hi, I am looking to update our website’s PHP version to at least 7.0. Before 
   doing this, I have two questions. 1. Is the latest version of BackUpWordPress
   compatible with PHP 5.4.45 (our current version)? 2. Is the latest version of
   BackUpWordPress compatible with PHP 7.0 and up? Thanks for your help and the 
   great plugin!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fphp-compatibility-question-11%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hey there –
 * Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. But yes! We are compatible with both
   your current version and with 7.0. I will note some nonspecific errors that seem
   to be increasing with newer versions than 7.0 – I haven’t been able to isolate
   if those are evidence of incompatibility or just a function that needs to be 
   further optimized because of changes.
 * Hope that helps!
