 * I got health error for this plugin
 * The REST API is one way WordPress, and other applications, communicate with the
   server. One example is the block editor screen, which relies on this to display,
   and save, your posts and pages.
 * The REST API request failed due to an error.
    Error: cURL error 28: Operation
   timed out after 10001 milliseconds with 0 bytes received (http_request_failed)
 * How can i fix that?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Frest-api-error-13%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi guys !
    Same issue here. I have spend 3 hours finding a fix this Error: cURL
   error 28: Operation timed out after 10001 milliseconds with 0 bytes received (
   http_request_failed) and I found out it was related to this plugin.
 * Is that related to the use of session_start which is “deprecated” since version
   4.9
 *     ```
       For those that might’ve found this thread by luck, I first came upon the problem (and now its solution!) of not being able to use WordPress’s built in theme editor to update php files as previously able prior to version 4.9
   
       TL;DR Sessions hanging. Urge developers to remove use of sessions. In the meantime replace session_start(); with session_start(['read_and_close' => true,]);
       ```

 * Thanks
