   in the Tools section).

   value given in /srv/disk1/2556167/www/andiepasdedeux.com/wp-includes/class-wp-
   hook.php on line 288

 * Hello!
 * It looks like you have successfully added the verification tags. Are you able
   to confirm your site ownership on the services?
 * The warning though – it seems to be caused by wrong usage of a Jetpack function.
   Is that error message all you see? I’ll create an issue in the Jetpack plugin
   about this warning. If you have anything to add, can you do that there?

 * Hi Igor, I shall check with each service as to the ownership.
 * Yes, that’s the only message I get. Thanks for your help!
