 * I have tried this plugin with the latest WordPress. I cannot save any tasks that
   I add.
    As soon as I press save all my tasks dissapear.

 * Hi,
 * thank you, I also noticed that at some stage text from your plugin was inserted
   into every page (I belive it was “This list does not exist”)
    It was on a testing
   site wirth lots of plugins and themes.

 * I was looking for a plugin that does some of the functionality that this plugin
   does.
    I’m not a developer or anything. So, I do not claim I know a lot about
   reading and editing code. Still, I have some knowledge.
 * I tried the plugin and it did not save tasks as it should be. I had a look at
   the file “hyperchecklist.php” and I found a mistake at the function “function
   install()” that creates the database table.
 * here is how it looks like :
    `global $wpdb; $table = $wpdb->prefix . ‘hcl_listitems’;
   $sql = “CREATE TABLE $table ( `id` INT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT , `list_id` INT NOT
   NULL , `name` TEXT NULL , `desc` LONGTEXT NULL , `users` LONGTEXT) NULL , `status`
   INT(11) NULL , `listorder` INT(11) NULL , `lastchangedby` VARCHAR(45) NULL, `
   lastchanged` DATETIME NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`id`) );”;`
 * The mistake here is in line 6 where it should create the users column.
 * I fixed this by creating the table myself in my database using this code:
 *     ```
       CREATE TABLE wp_hcl_listitems (
       			<code>id</code> INT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT ,
       			<code>list_id</code> INT NOT NULL ,
       			<code>name</code> TEXT NULL ,
       			<code>desc</code> LONGTEXT NULL ,
       			<code>users</code> LONGTEXT NULL ,
       			<code>status</code> INT(11)  NULL ,
       			<code>listorder</code> INT(11)  NULL ,
       			<code>lastchangedby</code> VARCHAR(45) NULL,
       			<code>lastchanged</code> DATETIME NULL,
       			PRIMARY KEY (<code>id</code>) );
       ```
   
 * And that fixed it right up.
 * But, I’m having an issue with showing the result in the checklist page. Although
   in the instructions it says that the plugin should create one. It did not and
   I had to create one and assign it in the options.
 * But, still getting an error when I load the page assigned.
 * Hope I helped an I’ll look into my issue and try to fix it.
 * Big thanks for ferenyl for the amazing plugin.
