 * Hello,
 * Glad to help. It’s a bug (warning not an error) that will be fixed in the next
   plugin update. In the meantime you can stop the Warning by adding the following
   code:
 *     ```
       function blackhole_enable_host_check() { return false; }
       add_filter('blackhole_enable_host_check', 'blackhole_enable_host_check');
       ```
   
 * Thanks for reporting, [@discountamerica](https://wordpress.org/support/users/discountamerica/).
