 * Hi,
    I use a remote service to maintain my clients’ sites (iControlWP)and so 
   was not logged into a site when I updated PHP Code for Posts to v 2.0.8 yesterday.
   My client called today to say that something was wrong with her website.
 * Evidently, when the update was made, the plugin deactivated. Had I been logged
   into the site, obviously I would have noticed it right away.
 * Anyway, it’s no biggy, but would you have any idea why the plugin would spontaneously
   deactivate upon update?

 * Ahhh… I just found this in my iControlWP logs.
 * Attempt to update plugin “PHP Code for posts” from version “1.3.0” resulted in
   a new plugin name.
 * That would cause its deactivation, I guess!

 * hey, not sure on a new name, but I did change the author, perhaps that triggered
   it.
