 * Hi,
 * First of all I love the minimal design and functionality of this theme. Especially
   the drop-down menu for mobile and the social media icons on header and footer.
   I would love to continue using this theme because it completely agrees with my
   blog style!
 * Nevertheless I have 2 main issues:
 * 1.
 * Since the last update on October 2017 I’ve been getting PHP FATAL ERRORS related
   to the header.
    At first I didn’t give the much importance but my SEO manager
   is telling me those header errors in my theme / site can affect my SEO score…
   and suggested me to either contact you for a fix or try another theme.
 * This is the error/debug log for March 2018:

 * 2. When I tried to use the latest WordPress VIDEO WIDGET functionality (which
   uses iframes) my site showed another header error:
 * Error parsing header X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block; report=https://www.google.
   com/appserve/security-bugs/log/youtube: insecure reporting URL for secure page
   at character position 22. The default protections will be applied.
 * Can you help with these issues so I can keep using your amazing theme? Thank 
   you!

 * Hi there,
    1. I couldn’t notice any Fatal Errors when visiting your site. Actually
   fatal errors should cause a blank screen and nothing else loading. So these errors
   probably appeared once and triggered by basic WordPress functions. This means
   this was a hosting/PHP problem at a point. 2. Please use http instead of https
   since you dont have SSL installed in your site.
