 * I see that you’ve kinda hardcoded the path to `wp-content` in `voucherpress.php`
   like so:
 * `ABSPATH . "/wp-content/plugins/voucherpress/templates/"`
 * Now that’s bad practice. What if someone has their wp-content directory renamed
   to something like `data`. The plugin will break, telling you that `/wp-content/
   plugins/voucherpress/templates/` is not writable. Therefore I suggest you code
   all your paths this way:
 * `WP_PLUGIN_DIR . "/voucherpress/templates/"`
 * This won’t break when the `wp-content` dir name has been changed. 🙂

 * Fantastic, thanks for this. I’ll be sure to include this in the next version 
   of VoucherPress. Would you like credit as a contributor?
