 * Can’t activate the plugin. Get a message telling me it doesn’t have a valid header.

 * Can you give me any more details about your setup? I’m not able to recreate this
   issue on my testing environments.

 * For some reason I was able to activate it from the plug-in overview wihtout any
   issues. It just couldn’t be activated using the “activate plugin”-link when first
   installed.
