 * After update of plugin to v 4.6.0 (WordPress 4.5.3 at Liquid Web using Vantage
   theme), get following error message:
    Warning: require(admin/shortcode_button.
   php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/ventpub/public_html/
   wp-content/plugins/rd-hover-effects/rd-hover-effect.php on line 85
 * Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required ‘admin/shortcode_button.php’ (
   include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/ventpub/public_html/
   wp-content/plugins/rd-hover-effects/rd-hover-effect.php on line 85
 * Makes sense; there is no such file. Only shortcode_generator.php and shortcode.
   php in admin folder. Changed file so that it requires shortcode.php and error
   changes to
    Fatal error: Cannot redeclare rd_hover_effects_shortcode() (previously
   declared in /home/ventpub/public_html/wp-content/plugins/rd-hover-effects/admin/
   shortcode.php:2) in /home/ventpub/public_html/wp-content/plugins/rd-hover-effects/
   admin/shortcode.php on line 273

 * Site is at [http://venturepublishing.ca](http://venturepublishing.ca), but plug-
   in is not activated because it causes fatal error.

 * Wow, I’m impressed. No Fatal Error any more, and such a quick turnaround.
 * However …
    “Important notice: We have Upgraded our Plugin as version 4.6.0, So
   if your previous hover Items Don’t Appear after Upgraded, please don’t worry,
   just look up in setting panel once below in custom Post. Then Click Update once.
   need help?:” … where is “custom Post”? I’ve tried to update in RD Hov Effect-
   >Edit, but the Item does not appear. Deactivated all other plugins, still nada.

 * You need to adjust settings again after upgrade new version.
    Then Delete previous
   shortcode then you need to delete previous shortcode and should use new shortcode
   which you get after publish/update.
 * let me know if you face any issue .
    Thanks

 * Thank you.

 * Actually, it’s not being used in our site now. I’ve replaced them with older 
   technology called “jpegs”.
