When I try to activate the plugin I receive the following error:
The plugin does not have a valid header.

What can I do about this? Thanks!

Hi @saskiadnem , sorry for the trouble you’re having.

The plugin does have a valid header so the first thing to check would be whether you have a caching happening on your site. Caching can cause this issue as evidenced here:

Are you running any cache plugins on your site currently?

Thanks so much for your reply! Emptying the cache solved the problem 🙂
