 * Hello,
 * I installed the plugin and after I activated it, I started getting error 500 
   whenever I try to login to my wordpress instance. Unfortunately, I can’t remember
   what version of wordpress I have. How can I fix this? Is there an easy way to
   deactivate or uninstall?

 * The hosting control panel says that I have version 4.3.1, I’m updating to 4.4
   through the control panel… hopefully this fixes it.
