 * Hi, need help from you guys. I’ve installed the CMB2 plugin that comes within
   a theme that i purchased recently. The plugin was installed but I cant seem to
   activate it. The dev theme provided a plugin panel where I can activate all the
   plugins included in theme. But everytime I click activate it will do nothing.
   From the status itself show that the plugin is deactivate. Please help.

 * Feels like they’re possibly loading and/or trying to control certain parts about
   how it should be activated, outside of just a standard WordPress plugin.
 * For example, did you get told to upload an individual folder named “cmb2” or 
   similar to your plugins directory? Or is all the files for CMB2 located in the
   theme itself?
 * Also curious what theme it may be so we can gather what we can from their description
   page, etc.
