 * The following error has been displayed on plugin activation after updating to
   the last version.
 * `Database error of WordPress Duplicate column name 'msgfrom' in the query ALTER
   TABLE {my_prefix}_wplc_chat_msgs CHANGE 'from' 'msgfrom' varchar(150) triggered
   by activate_plugin, do_action('activate_wp-live-chat-support/wp-live-chat-support.

 * Hi there.
 * I can’t seem to replicate this on my side. After deactivating/activating the 
   plugin again, do you get the same database error on your side?
