### 󠀁[Avoid – this plugin crashed my website](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/avoid-this-plugin-crashed-my-website/)󠁿

I am not sure if this plugin has a compatibility issue with the current version 
of WordPress or if it is another problem, but it crashed my website upon download
and I had to disable the plugin through the file manager in cPanel to uninstall 
and eventually get my site back up and running, which was a cumbersome process. 
I do NOT recommend downloading this plugin under any circumstances as it will cause
you problems, and as a matter of fact I strongly feel it is highly irresponsible
for the developer to have not made an attempt to either update or even test the 
plugin to check if it is compatible. Bryan, if you get around to reading this, I
would strongly advise you to either take down this plugin or update it immediately
and ensure it is tested so it does not cause any more problems for users, because
it certainly did for me and I’m not happy about it.
