 * Howdy!
 * The image used for a placeholder is being served as http and not https by default.
   If someone were to use the plugin and not add a featured image, like I did on
   accident, the default image is served from [http://placeholder.cc/blahblahblah](http://placeholder.cc/blahblahblah),
   and this is not suitable for sites that are https.
 * Would you please amend this so that errors do not pop up with the certificate?
