 * Just wanted to add that this plug in breaks the built in theme editor in WP. 
   If you get _“Unable to communicate back with site to check for fatal errors, 
   so the PHP change was reverted. You will need to upload your PHP file change 
   by some other means, such as by using SFTP.”_ while trying to update, deactivate
   this plug in.
 * See [https://wpengine.co.uk/support/php-editor-errors-wordpress-4-9-higher/](https://wpengine.co.uk/support/php-editor-errors-wordpress-4-9-higher/)
   for futher reference on the specific error.
