 * How do I dismiss the latest update in WordPress? It requires a higher PHP version
   than I use, and I cannot update my PHP without breaking the site.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fphp-version-90%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Ouh
 * I put this PHP version requirement to avoid lover than 7.4 – which is now the
   lowest version with security patches.
 * But the plugin works well on 7.0
 * I removed the PHP requirement – please try again.
 * But I strongly recommend upgrading at least to 7.4.xx but try 8.1 too – maybe
   it will be working?
