 * After automatic install and trying to activate it in WP network, I got an error“
   File without header”.
 * Then, I manually extract **extendedapi/** directory to plugin directory. The 
   plugin was correctely intalled.
 * WP 3.1 rc1, network.

 * Hmm, I’ll have to check this out. Not sure why it would be having a problem.

 * That’s because the plugin files was inside **“extendedapi”** folder inside the
   Zipped file, please move the these files to the root of the plugin folder and
   reupload it again.
 * Hope that helps.
