    Hi
    The latest version of this plugin is displaying the following message on my development server (where I have warnings turned on)

    Warning: preg_match(): Compilation failed: invalid range in character class at offset 6 in xxxxxxxxxxxx\wp-content\plugins\testimonials-widget\includes\libraries\aihrus-framework\includes\class-aihrus-settings.php on line 806

    This appears to be a PHP version problem with a difference between PHP versions 7.3.1 (where it is broken) and 7.1.27 (where it is working)

    I can definitely confirm this is the problem. I’ve activated PHP v7.1.26 on my test server and the problem has gone away

    I just updated to PHP 7.3 and am seeing the same warning filling up my error log.

    I appear to have found a fix for this issue. Hope it will be included in the next release.

    Line 806:
    if ( preg_match( '#^(([\w- ]+)(,\s?)?)+$#', $input ) ) {

    Change to:
    if ( preg_match( '#^(([\w\- ]+)(,\s?)?)+$#', $input ) ) {

    Basically, add a slash \ after \w.

    I’d just like to verify this error and the fix. Just tweaked the plugin file on my site to remove the error. Hoping this is addressed in the next update!
