 * Hi,
 * I’m getting this error after updating the plugin to its last version
 * > Error while upgrading a database: Duplicate column name ‘note_context’
 * There is a way to fix this error? Or at least delete any shopMagic data in the
   db and restart with a fresh install of the plugin?
 * Thanks
