    Just now when updating to the latest version of the plugin my site went down with the following error message:

    PHP Fatal error occurred: Uncaught Error: Class 'Smart_Overlay_Custom_Fields' not found in /my/path/public_html/wp-content/plugins/smart-overlay/classes/class-smart-overlay.php:105 Stack trace: #0 /my/path/public_html/wp-content/plugins/smart-overlay/classes/class-smart-overlay.php(57): Smart_Overlay->load_dependencies() #1 /my/path/public_html/wp-content/plugins/smart-overlay/smart-overlay.php(28): Smart_Overlay->__construct() #2 /my/path/public_html/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(286): run_smart_overlay('') #3 /my/path/public_html/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(310): WP_Hook->apply_filters(NULL, Array) #4 /my/path/public_html/wp-includes/plugin.php(453): WP_Hook->do_action(Array) #5 /my/path/public_html/wp-settings.php(327): do_action('plugins_loaded') #6 /my/path/public_html/wp-config.php(98): require_once('/my/path/p...') #7 /my/path/public_html/wp-load.php(37): require_once('/my/path/p...') #8 /my/path/public_html/wp-blog-header.php(13): require_once('/my/path/p...') in /my/path/public_html/wp-content/plugins/smart-overlay/classes/class-smart-overlay.php on line 105.

    After disabling the plugin my site works. The plugin was working perfectly until this update.

    Apologies!

    When we deployed the 0.9.0 release we inadvertently left some files out of the release. The problem was quickly addressed, but if you happened to update during the window in which some files were missing — and it looks like you did — the best thing to do is probably delete and then re-install the plugin; 0.9.0 should then work just fine.

    Thank you for the quick response. I have no problem doing that but I think as a fellow plugin author I would suggest that you release a minor version (something like 0.9.1) when something like this happens. Many other users may not see this.

    Also, will deleting the plugin remove the current overlays I have in the system?

    Ack! I thought I’d replied to this earlier but didn’t. We did release a 0.9.1 per your suggestion.

    Deleting the plugin should not cause existing overlays to be deleted.
