 * Hi there,
 * I am wanting to upgrade PHP from 5.6.40 to 7.2.
    The PHP compatibility plugin
   shows that the Plugin was too large to scan.
 * I can see in previous forum posts that 7.2 had issues and 7.1 is okay but that
   was over a year ago.
 * Are there any known errors for the upgrade that I need to be sure to fix?
 * Thank you!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fphp-upgrade-9%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hello [@taylormadeelectrical](https://wordpress.org/support/users/taylormadeelectrical/)
 * Hope you’re doing well
 * Thank you for your question. The Defender plugin is working well with the PHP
   version 7.2. Feel free to upgrade to version 7.2
 * Have a good day and take care!
 * Kind regards,
