 * Hello! I’ve never had any trouble with this plugin before, but when I reinstalled
   it recently, I no longer have a button that allows me to proceed with the regeneration
   process. Instead of the button, I get the text “When needed” which, not being
   a complete sentence, doesn’t seem like anything you intended.
 * When I refresh the page, a message pops up for a split second that is in bright
   red, and one of the words is Javascript. But it is gone before I can even take
   a screenshot or read it.
 * I tried to read through previous support posts so as not to trouble you with 
   this, but didn’t find anything in 3-4 pages that sounds like this problem. Thank
   you for providing support; I do appreciate it!

 * Ah, wait nevermind, I had accidentally installed a different plugin, “Regenerate
   Thumbnails Advanced”.
 * I feel foolish, but the good news is your plugin is working just fine.
