 * Just received a support ticket from a user of my plugin (wpDirAuth) that your
   plugin was causing a conflict. Looked into your code and can see what the problem
   is.
 * In line 97, in the function cdh_admin_load in the file custom-dashboard-help.
   php, you’re including the file ‘pluggable.php.’ Unfortunately, this blocks all
   other plugins that load after yours from overriding the functions in that file.
   If you change line 42 from
    `cdh_admin_load()` to `add_action('plugins_loaded','
   cdh_admin_load');` and then remove lines 96-98, your plugin will continue to 
   function as expected, and will allow other plugins to override the pluggable 
   functions.

 * Thank you! I’ll look into incorporating that change into the next version. It
   looks like it will make this plugin load after all others? But I don’t think 
   there’s any problem with doing that.

 * Your `cdh_admin_load function` won’t fire until after all the plugins have loaded.
   I actually had my user change your scripts to what I suggested above and it worked
   just as it had before the change.
