 * I am experiencing a strange fatal error. Activating the plugin breaks my sites.
   I tried it on two sites (both running the latest WordPress version), and in both
   cases the sites completely crashed. I had to remove the plugin in Recovery Mode,
   and in one case I even had to restore the site from a backup. ” This plugin failed
   to load properly and is paused during recovery mode. An error of type E_ERROR
   was caused in line 1102 of the file …/wp-content/plugins/meow-gallery/classes/
   core.php. Error message: Uncaught Exception:” Thank you, JR

 * Hey [@iprg](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iprg/)! 👋
 * Unfortunately, I was not able to reproduce this issue on a test server using 
   the latest version of **Meow Gallery**.
 * That said, we’ll review this more closely and make sure the next update includes
   a more robust check of the database schema to help prevent this kind of issue.
 * Thanks for your patience and understanding!
