Recently a user noticed that the Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets WordPress plugin does not work on PHP versions earlier than 5.5.

This was a known issue that I had mentioned somewhere in the readme text on wp.org. In my personal opinion PHP versions earlier than 5.6 are too old to run live sites on, since they have reached “End of Life”. Check http://php.net/supported-versions.php to learn more about PHP supported versions.

Regardless, I have patched the plugin so it can run on PHP versions earlier than 5.5.

Version 1.0.6 of the Bitcoin and Altcoin Wallets plugin has been functionally tested on PHP 5.3. This should be of interest only to users who are unable to upgrade to a recent PHP version, either due to other dependencies on their site’s code, or due to a hosting service that offers dated software. If you are able to upgrade PHP to a supported version, you are advised to do so.

Remember that you can always submit any issues you are experiencing to the support forum. Feature requests, suggestions and general feedback is also welcome.

best regards,
