Hi there,

As long as the version of PHP you're using is compatible with WordPress, the theme will work just fine. You need to ask your hosting provider for recommendations and advice as this is not a theme-related matter that I can provide consultation on.

Best,

Chris

Hello-

My web host is requesting that I do this...

"Your account is currently using version 5.2/5.3 and you are strongly encouraged to switch to version 5.4 within the next 7 days. If you do not then your account will be automatically upgraded to 5.4 along with any extensions you have chosen to include in your current 5.2/5.3 configuration".

Is it safe to so so for my site, and if so, which option should I pick? The options available are:

PHP 5.4
All files with the extension .php will be handled by the PHP 5.4 engine.
Latest version of PHP.

PHP 5.4 (Single php.ini)
Same as PHP 5.4, but all subdirectories will use ~/public_html/php.ini

PHP 5.4 (FastCGI)
All files with the extension .php will be handled by PHP 5.4 FastCGI processes.
FastCGI for PHP makes all your PHP applications run through mod_fastcgi instead of mod_suphp. This eliminates the overhead of loading the PHP interpreter on every hit. Since it is always in memory ready for the next hit, the responses will be generated faster.

Many thanks.
Elaine
