 * Please be advised that the following warnings occur with PHP 7.4:
 *     ```
       PHP Deprecated:  Array and string offset access syntax with curly braces is deprecated in /wp-content/plugins/broken-link-checker/idn/idna_convert.class.php on line 370

 * The fix can be achieved by changing the curly brackets to square brackets.

 * Hello [@malae](https://wordpress.org/support/users/malae/)
 * I appreciate your time to report this. It’s already tasked up for our developers
   that will include a fix in a future release. 🙂
 * Take care,
    Dimitris

 * My development sites fill up with warnings unless I fix the code. Why change 
   to ‘resolved’ when the code has not been changed and it clearly has not been 
   resolved?

 * Hello [@malae](https://wordpress.org/support/users/malae/)
 * I hope you’re well today!
 * I apologize for that but there was no release yet with the fix since Dimitris
   responded to you. I can see that the fix has been already pushed to QA testing
   team so if it passes all the tests it will indeed be included in upcoming release
   but I’m afraid I don’t have an ETA.
 * Kind regards,
    Adam
