 * OK, I should have read the installation instructions rather than assuming that
   I simply add the plugin to the plugin dir, like many other plugins.
 * This plugin should have some checking code when not installed correct way.
 * Now, despite removing the plugin dir and checking the active plugins in the DB
   my WP admin area is trashed!

   Users can edit a post for up to 60 minutes from the time of submission.”
 * So why I can’t I edit the above post.
 * It could be complete coincidence, but my local server crashed at the exact moment,
   so I can’t be sure it was the plugin. I want to delete the post entirely. I should
   be able to but there’s no option.
 * Sorry.

 * You can edit posts but you can’t delete them. If it was your server then please
   review your review.
