The Twitter plugin for WordPress requires PHP 5.4 or greater to take advantage of [traits](http://php.net/manual/language.oop5.traits.php), [late static bindings](http://php.net/manual/language.oop5.late-static-bindings.php) for extensibility, [namespaces](http://php.net/manual/language.namespaces.rationale.php), and Twitter libraries. Embedded Tweets require a server capable of communicating with Twitter's servers over TLS/SSL; the [cURL library](http://php.net/manual/book.curl.php) typically works best.
