 * got the following message on install: plugin doesn’t have a valid header
 * I didn’t know what it meant but didn’t want to take the chance so I deleted it…

 * Given that CMW _does_ have a valid header, it’s a shame that I wasn’t given the
   opportunity to try to determine a possible cause (corrupt download, non-standard
   installation, restrictive folder permissions, etc?). Just dumping a 1 star Review
   on it – instead of raising a Support Issue – seems a tad harsh. Still, I’m sorry
   you had a problem with it.

 * Just go to the link esmi offers and click the five stars under ” My Rating,” 
   it will change to whatever you click, and give you an opportunity to add to or
   edit your review words…
