 * I’m using Localhost for my mainWP install. Upon recent update, I am receiving
   an error finding the openssl_pkey_export ( )
 * Warning: openssl_pkey_export(): cannot get key from parameter 1 in /Users/jimmyjames/
   Local Sites/3a-main-wp/app/public/wp-content/plugins/mainwp/pages/page-mainwp-
   server-information-handler.php on line 216

 * One thing to note, upon initial install I followed this support thread. I am 
   using Local by Flywheel on Mac. [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/install-issue-on-a-local-by-flywheel-site/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/install-issue-on-a-local-by-flywheel-site/)
 * I can re-run the setup wizard, however the selector is no longer visible to add
   the path to the OpenSSL file

 * When you install the update you may need to re-enter your openssl.cnf file path.
