 * I just installed WordPress Backup to Dropbox but have not been able to do the
   setup. After completing the authorization procedure I get a visual OK from the
   Dropbox site. Then, when I return to the Backup to Dropbox screen in WP Settings,
   I click the Continue button and get the message “There was an error authorizing
   the plugin with your Dropbox account. Please try again.” Four attempts to complete
   the authorization and proceed past the Continue button have failed.
