 * I love the way the plugin works on the front end. It makes the chat widget look
   SO much nicer. However, on the back end this plugin wreaked havoc on my database.
 * It added approx. 30,000 options to the database, all of which were also auto-
   loading. I have no idea why this was happening, or why the plugin would at all
   save anything to the database. Here’s an image of what’s appearing in the DB.

 * At first we blamed Tawk.to and even opened a ticket and escalated, but they pointed
   directly to this plugin as the culprit.
 * I’m surprised no one else has noticed this yet, but eventually it will slow down
   every site to a crawl if something isn’t corrected.
