 * I receive this message when I try to activate the plugin. The plugin does not
   have a valid header.

 * Hi, did you install the plugin automatically? From the wordpress backend?
 * That’s what I did and I had the same problem. I downloaded it instead and uploaded
   it to the plugins folder manually, now it works.
 * Hope this helps!

 * It’s not working for me. I mean, I managed to activate the plugin but it keeps
   saying I need to update the widget. When I click update it says the plugin doesn’t
   have a valid header…
