 * After installing the plugin and clicking the ‘activate’ link, a message displays
   saying that the plugin activated. However, the plugin remains inactive and there
   are no other error messages.

 * Hi Svdorak,
 * Thanks for pointing this out to us. We will be improving the instructions on 
   how to best download and install the plugin shortly.
 * Did you make sure to download the piklist plugin? This is needed for successful
   installation.
