 * I love love love this plugin, but my software security scans report that it is
   abandoned and so is a security threat. I understand that even a beautifully perfect
   plugin will receive this report if (for example) it has not been updated in 2
   years, yet it is actually still safe, the absence of an update still triggers
   this warning.
 * My clients are not happy to continue unless the reports are clean, and I have
   no way to substantiate if the software is OK or not.
 * I imagine this is the case for other developers using the plugin.
 * Is there any chance you could submit a new version to the repository, to bring
   it up to date so that I can continue using it without the glaring reports?
 * cheers, and thank you for such great functionality.
 * cheers

 * I just pushed an update. Only the readme file was updated (not the code), so 
   the version number didn’t change.
 * The plugin isn’t “abandoned”, but no new features will be developed. Also, it
   doesn’t work with the Gutenberg editor and a new WordPress 5 installation will
   use the Gutenberg editor by default, so I’m reluctant to mark the plugin as “
   compatible with WordPress 5”. So it may show a warning “This plugin hasn’t been
   tested with the latest WordPress versions…”
