 * …until configuration is complete. All I get when visiting the site is:
 * _Configuration Required_
 * This plugin requires configuration before use, please configure this plugin using
   the settings page.
 * I have not tested whether actually completing the configuration fixes the issue(
   awaiting the AWS credentials from a team member), but still I thought you’d want
   to know about this unexpected behavior.
 * Here is the site without the plugin activated:
 * [http://iamshoreline.wpengine.com/](http://iamshoreline.wpengine.com/)
 * And with the plugin activated:
 * [http://iamshoreline.staging.wpengine.com/](http://iamshoreline.staging.wpengine.com/)(
   note also that the “settings page” link does not work, though I can still login
   into admin otherwise.
