 * I work locally and have set up a site with the Amazon Auto Link plugin.
 * When I go to transfer it to the final site, the plugin stops working, the plugin
   icon does not appear but only the name in the WordPress menu, and both units 
   and settings load endlessly without showing anything.

 * Hi,
 * Glad to hear you’ve found the cause.
 * For your information, the plugin FAQ has been updated by adding an entry about
   ad-blocks. This is for those who are concerned about the visibility of affiliate
   links to site visitors.
 * > To work around it, either rename the plugin installation directory, `amazon-
   > auto-links` to something else or install from the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/michaeluno/amazon-auto-links)
   > using the [Git Updater](https://github.com/afragen/git-updater) plugin.
   > Then add the following code in the [functions.php](https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/theme-functions/#what-is-functions-php)

   >     add_filter( 'aal_filter_plugin_slug_oembed', 'func_aal_filter_plugin_slug_output' );
   >     function func_aal_filter_plugin_slug_output( $slug ) {

 * The directory name must not contain the string `amazon-auto-links`.
