 * Great plugin. Very useful. Unfortunately, I discovered a small bug.
 * I installed and activated the plugin. I worked with some posts and added content
   using your plugin without issue.
 * I then started working with images, and one way to reproduce this bug is to open
   a post, set the featured image, upload the image, add a caption, then save the
   featured image.
 * When I go to the media library, it is like your plugin is either disabled or 
   uninstalled, there is no evidence of it.
 * Disabling and reenabling the plugin does nothing. I have to delete the plugin
   and reinstall it to see its functionality again.
 * I am using WordPress 7 and PHP 8.5.x.

 * Hi – I wanted to add a small update. I have not yet been able to confirm this
   issue being related to your plugin; however, I believe it is.
 * I had entered several categories in hierarchical order: state, county, city. 
   Those were all in place, and assigned to posts.
 * As I entered more posts and I attempted to assign those posts to, say a city,
   I found the state-county relationship was still there, but the city relationship
   had been lost. The city was now a standalone category unrelated to any state 
   or county.
 * When I have time, i will try to confirm this behaviour, although I really do 
   not want to have to go back and redo any more relationships.
 * They were only new categories added, and no changes to existing category relationships.
   Only posts were added since I deleted your plugin, and I do not believe there
   have even been any plugin updates recently.
