 * I had a problem with the “Read More” link not working and I thought it might 
   be W3 interfering so I deactivated W3 to see and now I’m having more issues.
 * First I get a warning saying some files are now lost. It says to re-install W3
   or delete a file in my directory.
 * I tried reinstalling but I get this:
 * Plugin cannot be active because:
 * W3 Total Cache Error: some files appear to be missing or out of place. Please
   re-install plugin or remove /home2/aworldo5/public_html/livelimitless/wp-content/
   object-cache.php.
    Warning: require_once(WP_PLUGIN_DIR/w3-total-cache/inc/functions/
   compat.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home2/aworldo5/
   public_html/livelimitless/wp-content/plugins/w3-total-cache/inc/define.php on
   line 1478
 * Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required ‘WP_PLUGIN_DIR/w3-total-
   cache/inc/functions/compat.php’ (include_path=’/home2/aworldo5/public_html/livelimitless/
   wp-content/plugins/google-analyticator/google-api-php-client/src:.:/usr/php/54/
   usr/lib64:/usr/php/54/usr/share/pear’) in /home2/aworldo5/public_html/livelimitless/
   wp-content/plugins/w3-total-cache/inc/define.php on line 1478
 * What do I do?
 * My media is not taking pictures either right now and I’m not sure if this is 
   why…
