 * Looking at the Site Health section of the admin, I see that my site has a problem.
 * > PHP default timezone was changed after WordPress loading by a date_default_timezone_set()
   > function call. This interferes with correct calculations of dates and times.
 * Of all the plugins I use, yours is the only one that loads this. In fact, it 
   does so twice. Once in joan.php and once in crud.php.
 * This appears to be causing issues with other functions that rely on the timezone
   being set by WordPress. Can we get a version of the plugin that doesn’t use this
   method of setting the time zone?
