 * I cannot upload graphics or images when trying to post anything, and I don’t 
   think the communication between the site, the API, and Averta is working because
   it never updates anymore. Additionally, Wordfence calls the platform and plugin
   vulnerable. Furthermore, I can’t send direct messages on the Averta site; that
   function does not work. I tried to use the support at Envato, but the code won’t
   work with the email address it’s under. We paid for it; this is the Pro Theme.
   There is no customer service to contact about any issues.
 * Overall, I believe the problem is due to the plugin “Phlox Core Elements,” which
   has a critical security vulnerability. The current plugin version (2.17.12) has
   this vulnerability, so the safest option is to deactivate and completely remove“
   Phlox Core Elements” until a patched version is available. We are no longer able
   to upload images, and we can’t work. This is a serious problem.
