 * hi!
 * thanks a lot for your plugin!
    I just updated to the new version (2.0.1) and 
   now noticed in my log:
 * `HP Warning: curl_setopt(): CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated when safe_mode
   is enabled or an open_basedir is set in [...]/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-https/
   wordpress-https.php on line 533`
 * I’m not sure if that was there before the update.
    Can you implement a check 
   that only sets CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION to true when safemode is off?
 * thx

 * Hey whaus,
 * Actually, PHP’s [safe mode](http://php.net/manual/en/features.safe-mode.php) 
   is deprecated and shouldn’t be used. I know you’re probably using a host that
   uses it, but I just thought I’d point that out.
 * I’ll make it so that the warning is suppressed so that it won’t generate an error
   in the error log.
 * Thanks,
    Mike
