 * Greetings,
 * I know it is not compatible with WP 5.2.2 but… figured I would let you know:
   **
   01.** Use WordPress 5.2.2; **02.** Visit: Tools / Site Health : No errors 100%;**
   03.** Activate Favorites; **04.** Visit: Tools / Site Health: It generates two
   errors: **0401.** The REST API is one way WordPress, and other applications, 
   communicate with the server. One example is the block editor screen, which relies
   on this to display, and save, your posts and pages.
 * The REST API request failed due to an error.
    Error: [] cURL error 28: Operation
   timed out after 10003 milliseconds with 0 bytes received
 * **0402.** Loopback requests are used to run scheduled events, and are also used
   by the built-in editors for themes and plugins to verify code stability.
 * The loopback request to your site failed, this means features relying on them
   are not currently working as expected.
    Error: [] cURL error 28: Operation timed
   out after 10003 milliseconds with 0 bytes received.
 * Hope this can be solved soon. I just love this plugin.
    Out of the 74 plugins
   I use, there is also another plugin that generates these errors: Social Auto 
   Poster. I’ll also let them know.
 * Kindly,

 * Hi there
 * Ran into the same issue myself. After deactivating 43 plugins and reactivating,
   Favorites seemed to be the cause. I have just resolved it by selecting cookies
   instead of sessions in the “Save Unauthenticated Favorites as” checkbox. Bingo,
   Site Health 100%!
 * From this I suppose it is something to do with how Favorites is handling sessions
   but I am not an experienced developer so maybe the plugin dev could shed some
   light on why the plugin is causing this behaviour when sessions are used?
