 * Hi, I just downloaded this plugin in wordpress and when I tried to activate it,
   I got the following error:
    Plugin could not be activated because it triggered
   a fatal error. Fatal error: Declaration of BROO_API_Impl::get_badge() must be
   compatible with that of BROO_API::get_badge() in /home/content/q/u/r/quranreading/
   html/otl6707/wp-content/plugins/badgearoo/includes/class-api.php on line 201
 * Then I tried to delete the plugin and remove associated date/files and it won’t
   delete because of fatal error.
 * So what can I do now?
