 * Hi.
 * There’s a problem after reactivating plugin, it does not keep the settings as
   before deactivation, meaning every-time reactivate we need to go and do the settings
   every-time. This is not good [https://prnt.sc/ugb0zp](https://prnt.sc/ugb0zp)

 * Hi Jaso, this is not a problem but a plugin behaviour. During plugin deactivation
   all the plugin options are deleted for cleaning-up the database.
    I could add
   a configuration in the plugin settings page where you can choose to not delete
   options after a deactivation. Unfortunately in this moment I cannot work on that,
   but I’ll take a note for a future plugin upgrade. Bye
