 * We received following error message on our Dashboard.
 * Oops… Your server is blocking the access to Freemius’ API, which is crucial for
   Material Design for Contact Form 7 synchronization. Please contact your host 
   to whitelist api.freemius.com, wp.freemius.comError received from the server:
   array ( ‘code’ => ‘7’, ‘message’ => ‘ Failed to connect to api.freemius.com port
   443: Connection timed out’, ‘type’ => ‘CurlException’, )
 * We never had this until today. What do we need to do in order to get rid of this?

 * Hi [@eloq](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eloq/)
 * If the issue only just started occurring, it could be a temporary bit of downtime
   with the Freemius API.
 * If it’s still occurring, you will need to contact your web host as per the error
   message.
 * Thanks,
    Angus
