 * Your plugin broke website while recreating keys, plugin didn’t delete properly
   old keys, it deleted 90% of code but leftovers, of course, created 500 error.

 * Hi [@secretja](https://wordpress.org/support/users/secretja/)!
 * I’m really sorry to hear that Slat Shaker didn’t fully replace the salt keys,
   and I understand how frustrating it must be to face a fatal error after that.
 * If you happen to have a screenshot of the resulted keys configuration (with the
   sensitive details blurred out), it would really help me get a better idea of 
   what went wrong.

 * [@secretja](https://wordpress.org/support/users/secretja/), that’s fantastic.
   Thank you a lot for sharing that, it’s helpful!
 * This is going to be checked and hopefully fixed/improved in the upcoming plugin
   release.
 * If you would like to follow up with the development status, you can check this
   issue on the plugin’s Github repo: [https://github.com/amElnagdy/salt-shaker/issues/30](https://github.com/amElnagdy/salt-shaker/issues/30)

 * Hi [@secretja](https://wordpress.org/support/users/secretja/),
 * The new release should be able to prevent this issue from happening. The plugin
   is checking the retrieved keys agains a regex expression, if it is not valid,
   it creates the keys locally.
 * Thank you for reporting that.
