 * Hey there
 * We have just updated the QSM plugin to version 7.3.0. The QSM dashboard now hsa
   this message at the top:
 * “Database update required
    QSM has been updated! We need to upgrade your database
   so that you can enjoy the latest features. Please note that this action can not
   be rolled back. We recommend you to take a backup of your current site before
   proceeding.”
 * When we click Update Database it says: “Error! Please try again”
 * Anyone else had this issue?
