 * Hello,
 * I can’t update to the the new 7.8.0 version of the plugin because a message say
   that I need at least version 7.4.33 of PHP.
 * But I’m using version 7.4.8 actually that is newer than 7.4.33. 
   Can you fix 
   that problem ?
 * Regards

 * Hi [@marc_o](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marc_o/),

 * PHP 7.4.33 is indeed the latest and final release. The version 7.4.8 is an older
   version.
 * You can check the changelog here:
   [https://www.php.net/ChangeLog-7.php](https://www.php.net/ChangeLog-7.php)
 * Please do note that PHP 7.4.XX versions have reached their end of life and can
   cause potential security issues if you have servers running on v 7.4.
 * It would be ideal to switch to PHP 8.0 if possible. However, if you are looking
   to get the plugin working, you’ll have to bring it to your Hosting provider’s
   attention to ensure the current version of PHP you have is at least 7.4.33.
 *  Best Regards,

 * Hello,
 * You were right, I was confused with those PHP versions.
   The version was updated
   to 7.4.33 and could make the upadte of the plugin and I’ll soon try the 8.0 version.
 * Thank you for your answer.
 * Regards
