    Thank you!

    Do the calls only happen immediately after you publish a post? If so, could you try to deactivate the Publicize module whenever you publish your next post, and let me know if it changes something?

    Thanks!

    Hello.

    I have check more in details. The last alert i get was at 10:02 AM and i publish always at 10AM. So i thought it was linked.

    But the prior one was at 4:55PM. So there is no link with publishing.

    And i don’t get always this alert when i publish

    After i have check also with the last installations done. One of the last one was W3 Total Cache Version. So i have remove it and i will see if i get again some alert.

    If yes i will try to stop publicize and come back to you for a result

    Thanks for your time
