 * **Fatal error**: require_once(): Failed opening required /wp-content/plugins/
   smol-links/vendor/composer/auto_load__real.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/share/php’)
   in **wp-content/plugins/smol-links/vendor/auto_load_.php** on line **23**
   looking
   for assistance to resolve this. It fails on install. Attempted to use composer,
   but there is no composer.json file. I am not sure how to update it to point to
   php correctly.

 * Aw, all the same error for me. It shouldn’t require any further steps if you 
   install it through the repository. Hoping this plugin will be fixed.
 * This plugin shows the above error when trying to activate it.
