    Hi,

    Im using WordPress 4.6.1 + Instant Articles v1.4 on a server with PHP 7 and when running the compatibility test using the “PHP Compatibility Checker” plugin it says this plugin is not PHP 7 compatible showing 19 Errors as you can see bellow.

    So my question to the developers of this plugin is if PHP7 support is planned and if yes, do you have a expected timeframe? This plugin is great but without PHP 7 full compatibility i cannot usit on my clients websites.

    NextScripts: Social Networks Auto-Poster
    Not PHP 7.0 compatible.

    On the first line of my previous message i made a mistake.

    It’s not: Im using WordPress 4.6.1 + Instant Articles v1.4..

    Instead is: Im using WordPress 4.6.1 + NextScripts: Social Networks Auto-Poster v3.7.2.

    Sorry

    SNAP is compatible with PHP7 since version 3.4.26. There are no critical errors and it can work, but thanks for that list, we will check it.

    Hi @nextscripts,

    Thanks for the support. My test was made using the plugin https://pt.wordpress.org/plugins/php-compatibility-checker/ that was developed by wpengine team.

    I really appreciate your team to check this out to ensure thare are no problems with PHP 7.

    Keep up the good work!

    Thanks

    BTW, that checker is not very smart.

    For example:

    FOUND 1 ERROR AFFECTING 1 LINE
    —————————————————————————————–
    312 | ERROR | Bitwise shifts by negative number will throw an ArithmeticError in PHP 7.0

    The real problem example:

    $a = (1 >> -1);

    That will cause an error because of negative value -1.

    Our code:

    if ($a&0x80000000 && $b>0) {
    $a = ($a>>1) & 0x7fffffff;
    $a = $a >> ($b-1); //## Your checker thinks this line is a problem.
    }

    We are already checking that $b>0 and $b-1 can’t be negative.

    So now we need to rewrite that totally good code.
