 * I installed the plugin manually by uploading the plugin folder to /wp-content/
   plugins.
 * I can activate it without problems but it fails scanning the site; this is output
   example:
 *     ```
       Name: xxxxxxxxxxx
   
       The plugin/theme was skipped as it was too large to scan before the server killed the process.
   
       Name: xxxxxxxxxx
   
       The plugin/theme was skipped as it was too large to scan before the server killed the process.
   
       Name: xxxxxxxx
   
       The plugin/theme was skipped as it was too large to scan before the server killed the process.
   
       Name: xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
   
       The plugin/theme was skipped as it was too large to scan before the server killed the process.
   
       Name: xxxxxxxxxxx
