 * Hello,
 * I’ve been receiving these warnings lately which have pretty much forced me to
   keep the Antispam plugin deactivated most of the time. The warnings come via 
   email in this form:
 * Howdy!
 * Since WordPress 5.2 there is a built-in feature that detects when a plugin or
   theme causes a fatal error on your site, and notifies you with this automated
   email.
 * In this case, WordPress caught an error with one of your plugins, Anti-Spam by
   CleanTalk.
 * First, visit your website ([https://amaranthinebooks.com/](https://amaranthinebooks.com/))
   and check for any visible issues. Next, visit the page where the error was caught(
   _omitted_) and check for any visible issues.
 * Please contact your host for assistance with investigating this issue further.
 * If your site appears broken and you can’t access your dashboard normally, WordPress
   now has a special “recovery mode”. This lets you safely login to your dashboard
   and investigate further.
 * _omitted_
 * To keep your site safe, this link will expire in 1 day. Don’t worry about that,
   though: a new link will be emailed to you if the error occurs again after it 
   expires.
 * When seeking help with this issue, you may be asked for some of the following
   information:
    WordPress version 5.8 Current theme: Kleanity Child (version 1.0.0)
   Current plugin: Anti-Spam by CleanTalk (version 5.160.3) PHP version 8.0.9
