General information
If you have a problem after or before installing the component please read our
troubleshooting page for the February 2013 releases of our components.
Do note that these issues are only likely to affect users with old versions
of PHP, Joomla! and/or very old versions of our components.
PHP 5.3 is now required
This version requires PHP 5.3 or later. The rationale behind this is
explained in our
statement of mid-February 2013. It won't install on hosts running PHP
5.2 or earlier. Moreover, due to the necessary Joomla! API changes found only
in Joomla! 2.5.6 or later, this version will not install on Joomla! 2.5.5 or
earlier versions. In any case, it will tell you exactly why it cannot be
installed (minimum PHP or Joomla! version not satisfied).
