 * I just checked source code and your plugin is putting our email addresses into
   the page source code. Please check this for yourself.
 * This should not happen and all people using this plugin will have their email
   addresses picked up by bots.
 * Can you release an update ASAP to fix this?
 * Thank you

 * Can you confirm if this is your plugin:
 * input type=”text” placeholder=”E-Mail” name=”xoo-wl-email” class=’xoo-wl-email’
   value=”name@myemail.com”>

 * Your plugin is also publishing the Google Captcha site key in the page source.

 * I checked and see that the email address of the person signed in is only in source
   code whilst they are signed in. However it still would make more sense not to
   have email addresses in the source code.
 * The plugin also adds extra html tags into the <head></head> tag, which is possibly
   not best practise.
