 * Hello it looks like a great plugin however it does say that you need to have 
   PHP 5.3 or higher installed in your sever as per the message below.
 * > The Two Factor Auth plugin requires PHP version 5.3 or higher.
 * Will you release a version that caters for those who have not yet upgraded to
   the latest PHP version? Or is this the default settings, in this case perhaps
   if you don’t mind add a note on the FAQ or at the description page.
 * Thank you kindly

 * Hi,
 * PHP 5.3 was released 4 years ago so I think it’s time to upgrade 🙂
 * I have no plans to support older PHP versions than that, I’ll put a note for 
   it in the description.
    Thanks for the info on this.

 * Hi,
 * I tried it with PHP 5.3 as well as 5.4, but the installation error keeps on asking
   for PHP version 5.3 or higher… What can I do? Same error with Two Factor Auth
   ver 4.2.
 * Thanks

 * Hello bjoernhoefer this ticket is marked as resolved. You should start a new 
   ticket to get better support. However do you know if you have the following enable..
 * >  This plugin requires PHP version 5.3 or higher and support for [PHP mcrypt](http://www.php.net/manual/en/mcrypt.installation.php).
 * Kind regards
