 * Hope you sleep well at night, duplicating a plugin called FooGallery. It is glarely
   obvious by the code you did not write this plugin. Everyone should use the actual
   source of this plugin, FooGallery.

 * Let me see a single line of code I would have copied, take your time, no rush.
   I guess spamming takes a lot of effort and time.

 * This plugin:
 *     ```
       // Create a helper function for easy SDK access.
       function ftggl_fs() {
           global $ftggl_fs;
   
           if ( ! isset( $ftggl_fs ) ) {
               // Include Freemius SDK.
               require_once dirname(__FILE__) . '/freemius/start.php';
       ```
   
 * FooGallery:
 *     ```
       	// Create a helper function for easy SDK access.
       	function foogallery_fs() {
       		global $foogallery_fs;
   
       		if ( ! isset( $foogallery_fs ) ) {
       			// Include Freemius SDK.
       			require_once dirname(__FILE__) . '/freemius/start.php';
       ```
   
 * You changed every instance of foogallery to ftggl. That’s 6 lines blatantly taken
   right there. I can continue. I will be compiling a list and submitting to both
   WordPress as well as CodeCanyon.

 * Can’t believe it. You spammed my FB page and publicly accused me because my plugin
   uses a third party code: Freemius which is used also by FooGallery and dozen (
   hundreds) of other plugins!
 * Read here [http://freemius.com/](http://freemius.com/)
 * This is just unbelievable.

 * [@mannweb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mannweb/) Do you have a real example…?
   That’s the documented way to include freemius. Which is pretty obvious when you
   read the comment `// Include Freemius SDK.`

 * I rescind my first statement and apologize to the developer. I jumped the gun
   on this one. My apologizes.
