 * I’ve been using the plug-in for about 4 months with no issues. I updated it yesterday
   to Version 1.80 and now it won’t activate. When I tell it to activate, I get 
   the standard message that it activated successfully, but it does not. I uninstalled
   and re-installed with no luck.
    I think I have the previous version backed up
   so I will revert to that one. Running WP 4.0 Theme: Striking Multiflex 1.1.0

 * I deleted all of the plug-in files and re-installed version 1.75, but it didn’t
   help – the plug-in still will not activate. Not sure what could be causing the
   conflict. I have not installed any other plugins in the past few days.
    I see
   that Google Maps Widget is running a cron event weekly, gmw_cron, but I don’t
   think that would create a conflict. Any suggestions?

 * Unfortunately it’s impossible to tell without any errors being displayed. No 
   significant changes were done on the plugin in the last update.
