  Our hosting company informs us that they’re fazing out PHP 5 shortly and that WordPress users may be affected by this. I assume we are all up to date with our site, but is there any way we can check this. I cannot find which PHP-version is currently used. Please help!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hey @3nequick,

  You can create a PHP file name phpinfo.php or with any name, and paste it code <? phpinfo(); ?> .

  Now if you visit your website such as http://example.com/phpinfo.php you should see the PHP info page.

  Your site is using the self-hosted version of WordPress, and you need to seek help next time at the WordPress.org forums:

  Thanks !!!
