 * I have uploaded “Add From Server” plugin and when I activate it I receive the
   error message: “This plugin requires WordPress 4.0 or greater, and PHP 5.4 or
   greater. You are currently running WordPress 4.7.1 and PHP 5.3.28. Please contact
   your website host or server administrator for more information. The plugin has
   been deactivated.” I contacted EarthLink and they said they plan to update. Is
   there another plugin with a lower PHP requirement? Or, do you have any further
   thoughts of something that might work?

 * I would suggest pushing Earthlink to update sooner instead. PHP 5.3.28 was released
   in December 2013 and is woefully out of date.
 * If the WordPress media uploader doesn’t work for your use-case, explaining what
   your use-case is might allow someone else to suggest an alternative for you. 
   I don’t have any suggestions myself though.
