 * Hello there!
 * I ran some tests on your site and everything looks working okay from my end, 
   which is a good place to start 🙂
 * Are you still having this problem there? Can you try checking your site from 
   another web browser and/or incognito window to see if the issue persists?
 * Let me know what you find out!
