 * This plugin interferes with the operation of another plugin I want to use: Mediapress.
   So I tried to deactivate it, but it won’t deactivate.
 * So then I tried deleting it from the plugins directory, the website went really
   really slow. Is there a nicer way of deactivating this?
 * I’ve restored the site from backup to get it back to usual operation.
