 * Every time I try to update the plugin a popup comes up demanding I pay to renew
   my license. How do I get past the popup and upgrade the plugin?

 * Hi Gregg, WordPress rules do not allow me to discuss premium features on their
   forum. Please contact me directly at support at fullworks dot net.
 * I will mark this as resolved and await to hear from you.

 * But this isn’t a premium version. It’s from the WordPress plugin in repository.
   Are you telling me I have to pay in order to upgrade what was a free plugin?

 * I sincerely hope not, thanks for clarifying.
 * Can you contact me directly so I can identify the url / user and see if I can
   fix things in my e-commerce end.

 * If any one else is having difficult upgrading from 2.2 to 2.3 please can you 
   manually upgrade by first deleting the folder ‘widget-for-evenbrite-api’ in your
   plugins directory and then follow the manual FTP installation instructions here

 * Added note:
 * In fact – if you have difficulty upgrading from free 2.2 to free 2.3 then it 
   appears simplest to disable the plugin. Upgrade and re activate.
