UAM disabled itself

    After updating the plugin just now, a warning popped up “Sorry you need at least PHP version 5.0 to use the User Access Manager. Your current PHP version is 5.2.17.” And UAM just disabled itself (which means the previously restricted areas are now open to everyone).

    But on “plugins” page, UAM is still marked as activated.

    That’s a typo. The new version requires at least PHP 5.3 and not 5.0. But to be honest PHP 5.2 got his last update 06 January 2011, that means six (SIX!) years ago and hasn’t got any security updates since then. I wouldn’t recommend my strongest enemy to use that version. So I would suggest to update your PHP version at least to PHP 5.6 or even better to PHP 7.0 if possible.

    Yea, I’ve just read it on your twitter. Thanks for your prompt reply here though! Before I can get the right guy to fix that PHP thing (obviously I’m not really an IT person), I’ll need to find a work around. But your prompt reply definitely encourages me to stick with this plugin. It had worked really well!

    Ok one small hack. Go to user-access-manager.php and change the following line

    if (version_compare($sPhpVersion, '5.3') === -1) {

    to

    if (version_compare($sPhpVersion, '5.2') === -1) {

    Currently it still should work with PHP 5.2 but please(!!!) update you PHP version. 🙂

    WOW, THANK YOU! You saved my day! Yes, I will go get that IT guy to update the PHP version ASAP!
