I noticed in the change log of 1.8.2 that the minimum PHP version upscaled to PHP 5.5.


My server has PHP 5.4.45


Does that mean I now have to get my host to upgrade my PHP version on the server before I run the platform update?

Thanks Phil W


I know it's kind of a no-brainer, basically just wanted to be sure. Many thanks

Totally understandable. Better to be super safe than sorry :) 
Good luck with your update.

Phil is right, it is better to update php version first.
