 * Great plugin!
    I’ve been using this plugin for over a year without issue. Today
   when I click “Add New File” I get a blank page that says “Created!” on the top
   left. Any suggestions for a fix?
 * File Manager Version 2.5.91
    WordPress version 3.8 MySQL version 5.5.30-cll PHP
   version 5.3.25 Perl version 5.8.8 Apache version 2.2.24
 * Thanks Much

 * This is due to the new WordPress 3.8 update. This is a bug that needs fixing.
   You can click on “Add New File” to at least create it. Once it says it’s been
   created, you can just go to your file manager and click on the Edit button to
   the “file” that was created. At least it’s a work around for now.

 * Thanks for the heads up. adding this in the next set of bug fixes.
 * however this might be delayed as this is not on my priorities right now. (I have
   different personal priorities at this point)
 * However if someone wants to fix this they can submit the patch and i will be 
   happy to add that into the repository.
