 * And yet – if you click on Activate Plugin, it still seems it’s working fine?
 * Some weird stuff happening here…

 * Hi again [@steveraven](https://wordpress.org/support/users/steveraven/),
 * while have written, our IT published the hotfix on the invalid header 🙂
    After
   the update, it might be necessary to activate Blog2Social once again. But after
   it, you can use Blog2Social just like before.
 * Best

 * No need – works exactly right as expected. Just updated a blog post and it updated
   no problem.
 * Thanks for the speedy support!
