 * Hi [@scottdeamer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scottdeamer/),
 * Thanks for letting us know. I have just uploaded a new version fixing the issue.
 * It was an issue with a function name used by both plugins. This should not be
   the case and I have prefixed the function now to avoid this issue.
 * Cheer,
    Sven
