 * Hi there,
 * I’ve just installed Maxbuttons, but I’m having some difficulties. I can’t save
   any buttons, so no matter what I do the list is empty. I have already tried to
   deactivate/activate. Any other suggestions?

 * I’m having the same problem. Just upgraded the plug-in and now it won’t work.

 * Disregard. I deactivated and reactivated the plugin and it’s all back to normal.

 * Sorry, but other than deactivate/reactivate, we don’t have any other suggestions.
   The reason why aa deativate/reactivate is sometimes required is because some 
   updates include a change to the buttons table in the database, and the only way
   to get the change is during the activation process (for which you need to deactivate
   first). So if that’s not working, then it’s really hard for us to be able to 
   tell what the issue is without seeing the underlying database.

 * Marking as resolved but happy to re-open if there are still issues.
