Support for PHP 5.6 and PHP 7

**GK User** Sat Sep 03, 2016 8:49 am

When I run the plugin "WP Engine PHP Compatibility Checker" it shows that CloudHost theme has a few warnings and errors with PHP 5.6 and PHP 7. Since PHP 7 can bring about a significant increase in the website performance, we are looking to upgrade our server to PHP 7 but found that your theme is incompatible.

It would be really great if you could make it fully compatible with PHP 7 and 5.6. Any news on when can we expect updates for compatibility.

Hello,

I've installed CloudHost theme on PHP7 server and can't see any issues, but we'll check it exactly and if we will find any issue, it will be fixed with the next themes update.
