 * Hello, I’m looking to upgrade my WordPress site to PHP 7. Before doing so, I 
   ran “PHP Compatibility Checker” plugin:
 * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/php-compatibility-checker/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/php-compatibility-checker/)
 * In doing so, it turned up the following 3 warning messages in relation to this
   plugin.
 * Are these things I should be concerned about before upgrading to PHP 7 or simply
   false positives?
 * Thank you.
