 * Hi,
 * Firstly, many thanks for such a sweet plugin that makes something so tedious 
   and boring so effortless to implement, having said that however, i think it’s
   causing a number of issues on my website, i’ve tried to deactivate with a view
   to uninstall, but deactivating the plugin however causes the following issues(
   so i’m not sure if uninstalling is wise)
 * 1. ERROR LOG Notice: map_meta_cap was called incorrectly. The post type wpautoterms_page
   is not registered, so it may not be reliable to check the capability “edit_post”
   against a post of that type. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information.(
   This message was added in version 4.4.0.) in public_html/wp-includes/functions.
   php on line 5167
 * 2. if i try to activate or deactivate or install any plugins i get white screen,
   i have to manually change URL to the last URL i was on (eg. /plugins.php to return.
   When i do i notice my last action was performed.
 * There is another issue, since i installed your plugins whenever i try to make
   a new page or post the default page theme which worked previously doesn’t work
   anymore, the page appears completely unstyled, i don’t get the usual layout i
   would with the theme
 * Have tried deactivating all plugins and activating one by one, only this plug
   in causes issues.
 * Have tried re-installing wordpress theme
 * wordpress 5.4.1
    Php 7.3 Inktheme 1.1.1 ([https://themetrust.com/wordpress-themes/ink/](https://themetrust.com/wordpress-themes/ink/))
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fplugin-causing-issues-and-error-log-map_meta_cap-was-called-incorrectly%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
