Sorry if this aggravates you Felix. This was not my intention.
My server is using cPanel and allows me to go as far back as 5.6, I think. But by default it is set to 7.4.
I do know that not everyone is using cPanel. And I cant really assume everyone's personal financial situation, technical experience or abilities.
But, as there has been a request for compatibility with newer versions of PHP, some community members have graciously offered their time and know how to provide a solution for this. Just like with plugin.
Nobody is being forced or even requested to move to 8.x or the CE version. It is just a solution for those who need it.
I am sure there are some people that are still using Windows XP. If it works for them, great. But this is supposed to be a community to help each other, not get made if someone wants to use a different version. That would be like arguing that I dont find a plugin useful so it shouldnt exist. If it works for them, great. If they dont want to use it, great.
I dont comment to start problems or make assumptions. Just trying to help and give positive feedback. I want to see the community prosper, not scare users away with bickering or taking a thread off topic.
@bonaventure stated his server was changed to 8.1 and I was only trying to provide a possible solution. Please dont get angry.
