# Site down with plugin requiresPHP version – message

 * Yesterday, my customers site went down with only showing this error-message: “
   NestedPages plugin requiresPHP version 5.4.0”.
    I had activated the auto-update-
   feature on all parts of this wordpress-installation. I resotred an old version
   from a backup and made the site work again quickly. While I still wait, to upgrade
   to a higher PHP-Version I was wondering if a site-monitor that pings the site
   would still catch this error? (No 500-error – site was still responding) And 
   should I report a ticket with the WordPress-Team, to prevent auto updates on 
   plugins, that don’t meet the PHP-Requirements?
