Hi All,

I have just had this come from our host....

We're getting in touch with some really important news about PHP.

From 31st January, we'll be making some older versions of PHP unavailable.

The reason? To ensure we maintain the highest levels of security and nip any potential vulnerabilities in the bud.

Here's what you'll need to do

If you're currently using a site with a PHP version that's older than 5.6, you need to move to a newer version ASAP.

We recommend that you move to version 7.2 or later, to future proof yourself.

PHP 5.6 will continue to be supported, but it also reaches its end of life soon.

You must carry out these updates by 31st January or you'll encounter some major problems with your site as your old PHP version fails in February.


If I look at the bottom of the admin home page my versions is PHP 5.6.37???
Should I worried please??? Can anything be done at all????

Hi Trace
Firstly, don't panic . . . the current versions of the cart are perfectly happy with PHP version 7.whatever so you'll be fine I'm sure.
There are some notes here about a couple of changes you need to make for PHP 7...

Once you've been through that and have made sure everything is still working, then go to your hosting control panel and somewhere there will be a place to change your PHP version. Try upping the version to 7.2 and then check the site again. If you have any problems, set things back to 5.6 and let us know.
