 * Hi,
 * When did this happen? Did you import shipping rates and does it appear then, 
   or does this occur when creating a new shipping rate?
 * Thank you,
    Jeroen

 * Hi Jeroen,
 * It occurred when I added a new shipping rate.

 * Gotcha. I’ve been able to replicate this and will make sure the error is resolved
   with the next update.
 * As a immediate workaround you should be able to just remove the error text from
   the shipping title field and enter your own value. When saving it should no longer
   show the error.
 * Thank you for noting / reporting!
 * Have a great day!
    Jeroen

 * Jeroen,
 * I’m getting this error after installing AFS today. It appears under “Shipping
   Settings” even if I have no shipping methods added. Please Help!

 * This isn’t solved. There’s a workaround, but there’s still an error.
 * Thanks for the plugin and the workaround anyway.
