 * Hi there,
 * I’m looking to get my website upgraded to PHP 7; I used a plugin to check my 
   website’s compatibility, and it claimed that Coming Soon Page & Maintenance Mode
   had 1 error that would prevent the plugin from working in PHP 7.
 * Would it be possible to have the following error fixed in a future update?
 *     ```
       FILE: /var/sites/t/totallysocially.org.uk/public_html/wp-content/plugins/coming-soon/framework/framework.php
       -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       FOUND 0 ERRORS AND 1 WARNING AFFECTING 1 LINE
       -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        597 | WARNING | Method name "SEED_CSP4_ADMIN::__return_empty_string" is discouraged; PHP has reserved all method names with a double underscore prefix for future use
       -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       ```

 * Hi,
 * The plugin works fine with php 7. This is a warning and not an error. Warnings
   do not prevents plugins from working.
 * This is also is a function in wordpress [https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/__return_empty_string/](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/__return_empty_string/)
 * Please let me know if you have any more questions.
 * Thanks
