: Compatibility Test

Test Should Be What You Have
PHP 5.2.0 or higher
XML Enabled
PCRE Enabled
Zlib Enabled
mbstring Enabled
iconv Enabled
Tidy Enabled
cURL Enabled
Parallel URL fetching Enabled
allow_url_fopen Enabled

What does this mean?

  1. You have everything you need to run properly! Congratulations!
  2. PHP: You are running a supported version of PHP. No problems here.
  3. XML: You have XMLReader support or a version of XML support that isn't broken installed. No problems here.
  4. PCRE: You have PCRE support installed. No problems here.
  5. allow_url_fopen: You have allow_url_fopen enabled. No problems here.
  6. Zlib: You have Zlib enabled. This allows SimplePie to support GZIP-encoded feeds. No problems here.
  7. Zlib: The Zlib extension is not available. SimplePie will ignore any GZIP-encoding, and instead handle feeds as uncompressed text.
  8. mbstring and iconv: You have both mbstring and iconv installed! This will allow to handle the greatest number of languages. No problems here.
  9. mbstring: mbstring is installed, but iconv is not.
  10. iconv: iconv is installed, but mbstring is not.
  11. mbstring and iconv: You do not have either of the extensions installed. This will significantly impair your ability to read non-English feeds, as well as even some English ones.
  12. Tidy: You have Tidy support installed. No problems here.
  13. Tidy: The Tidy extension is not available. should still work with most feeds, but you may experience problems with some.
  14. cURL: You have cURL support installed. No problems here.
  15. cURL: The cURL extension is not available. SimplePie will use fsockopen() instead.
  16. Parallel URL fetching: You have HttpRequestPool or curl_multi support installed. No problems here.
  17. Parallel URL fetching: HttpRequestPool or curl_multi support is not available. will use file_get_contents() instead to fetch URLs sequentially rather than in parallel.
  18. allow_url_fopen: Your PHP configuration has allow_url_fopen disabled. will not work here.
  19. PCRE: Your PHP installation doesn't support Perl-Compatible Regular Expressions. will not work here.
  20. XML: Your PHP installation doesn't support XML parsing. will not work here.
  21. PHP: You are running an unsupported version of PHP. will not work here.

Bottom Line: Yes, you can!

Your webhost has its act together!

You can download the latest version of from FiveFilters.org.

Note: Passing this test does not guarantee that will run on your webhost — it only ensures that the basic requirements have been addressed. If you experience any problems, please let us know.

Bottom Line: Yes, you can!

For most feeds, it'll run with no problems. There are certain languages that you might have a hard time with though.

Bottom Line: We're sorry…

Your webhost does not support the minimum requirements for . It may be a good idea to contact your webhost, and ask them to install a more recent version of PHP as well as the xmlreader, xml, mbstring, iconv, curl, and zlib extensions. And ask them to enable allow_url_fopen.

This compatibility test has been borrowed (and slightly adapted) from the one supplied by SimplePie.org. We have kept most of their checks intact as we use SimplePie in our application.
