 * Hey guys,
 * First off, great work with this plugin. It’s a must have for every WordPress 
   site.
 * I just wanted to give you a heads up about an error that’s being thrown in PHP
   5.5 that we’ve been picking up in our WordPress debug.log files:
 * `PHP Deprecated: preg_replace(): The /e modifier is deprecated, use preg_replace_callback
   instead in /xxxxxx/wp-content/plugins/wordfence/lib/Diff/Renderer/Html/Array.
   php on line 180`
 * The /e modifier was deprecated as of PHP 5.5, so you guys should update the code
   as soon as possible to reflect this. More info on the change is available in 
   the PHP manual for [preg_replace()](http://php.net/manual/en/function.preg-replace.php)
   under _Changelog_.
 * Thank you!
 * – Scott
