On Hostgator host it gives you a choice of 5.2~5.5, which is kind of cool.

I don't know if the problems were solved. I'd use the most current version, but if you have problems, switch it back to 5.3. Comments Last I knew, the older versions of PHP work better.

chris1 Code is Art Posts: 3862 Reg: Aug 10, 2012 Austin, TX 50,120	04/19/15 05:04 PM (9 years ago) I think the only issue with newer versions (5.4+) was in the third-party JSON parser library David was using in the code. If I remember right, it had a short-hand version of a constructor that didn't play nice with newer versions. I believe that issue is fixed now - if not, it's as easy as replacing a file with a newer version. I don't think anything in 5.5 would break the software, but I could be wrong.
