update PHP? [resolved]

[kennykiernanParticipant]

Hey guys, when I went to Woocommerce support I got this message:

<span style=”box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: bold; vertical-align: baseline; color: #444444; font-family: proxima-nova, sans-serif; font-variant-ligatures: normal; line-height: 25.008px; orphans: 2; widows: 2; background-color: #ffe6e5;”>You are running a very old version of PHP. Please update to 5.6 or greater.</span>

What’s the deal – should I do this, and how?

 

thanks!

Kenny:

From your Dashboard, go to:

Symbiostock -> Settings

Choose the System Tab

Scroll to the bottom of the page and check you PHP Version.

Mine says “PHP 5.3 to PHP 5.6 are the currently supported versions compatible with Symbiostock.”

The Symbiostock Hosting servers are optimized for Symbiostock and therefore run 5.4 for maximum stability and compatibility. There is no need to upgrade your PHP version for compatibility with WooCommerce, and any benefits are minimal, if any.
