    Hi Jason,

    We’ve looked into the highlighted issues in the past. These errors are coming up due to how the PHP 7 Compatability Checker checks for compatibility. It’s basically missing the context and the context prevents the issue from occurring and flagging it incorrectly as a result.

    In other words, these “issues” are false positive and safe to ignore. You’re able to use either PHP 7 or PHP 7.1 without issue. We actively use PHP 7 during development so we can assure you – there are no issues with PHP 7.
