 * Hi,
 * My website host (wpengine) will be migrating you to a PHP 5.6 environment.
    So
   they noted me that maps builder has some warnings that can create potential issues
   for my site if not updated prior to March 31st.
 * Following warnings I received :
 * FILE: /nas/content/live/faceoption/wp-content/plugins/google-maps-builder/includes/
   admin/system-info.php
    ——————————————————————————————————– FOUND 0 ERRORS AND
   1 WARNING AFFECTING 1 LINE ——————————————————————————————————– 224 | WARNING 
   | INI directive ‘safe_mode’ is deprecated since PHP 5.3 and removed since PHP
   5.4. ——————————————————————————————————–
 * FILE: /nas/content/live/faceoption/wp-content/plugins/google-maps-builder/vendor/
   wordimpress/maps-builder-core/includes/admin/system-info.php

 * What I have to do with that ?
    I’m affraid to do changes in your plugin code…

 * Hi there,
 * Those functions are there for older versions of PHP. Maps Builder works great
   on PHP 5.6 and even PHP 7. You don’t need to fear at all.
 * Thanks!
