 * Hello,
 * My WordPress dashboard warns me that I need to upgrade PHP from 7.2 to 7.3 or
   7.4.
 * Your site is currently running on an out-of-date version of PHP!
    Your site is
   currently running on PHP 7.2, which stopped receiving security updates on November
   30, 2020! For improved performance and security, we recommend upgrading your 
   site’s PHP version at your earliest convenience.
 * However when I run the PHP Upgrade compatibility check I get this errors:
 * /wp-content/plugins/ad-inserter/includes/phpQuery.php 1 (Ad Inserter)
 * When will this be updated so my hosting can move to the most secure version of
   PHP?
 * Thank you,
 * Chris

 * Hello,
 * the plugin should work fine with PHP 7.3 or 7.4.
    There are no known issues.
 * Many compatibility checkers report some false positives.
