 * Yes, I tried to deactivate and activate the plugin, but still no tables created.
   I’m about to try installing version 1.5.0.

 * Our customer makes the requirement: Users must log in to post comments.
 * Files modified to allow anonymous comments:
    wp-comments-post.php wp-admin\includes\
   class-wp-comments-list-table.php wp-includes\comment.php comments-popup.php (
   our custom comment box) functions.php (in our theme)
 * Is there another way to not display the user’s avatar, name, and email everywhere
   an anonymous comment is listed?

 * Tried to fix magic-fields\js\custom_fields\editor_validate.js.
    Changed call 
   to check_textarea, from this:
 *     ```
       jQuery("#publish").live('click',check_textarea);
       ```
   
 * to this:
 *     ```
       jQuery('input[type=submit]').on('mousedown', check_textarea);
       ```
   
 * but it didn’t solve the problem.
 * Next fix attempt in magic-fields\js\custom_fields\validate.js worked.
    Added 
   call to triggerSave, like this:
 *     ```
       $(document).ready(function() {
       	/*
               Calling triggerSave on a mousedown will copy the content from
               the iframe to the textarea, before the tinymce validate() is
               called.
               */
               $('input[type=submit]').on('mousedown', function() {
                 tinyMCE.triggerSave();
               });
       ...
       ```

 * The letter p is not useful, and just clutters up the page.
    Since it is a single
   character with no label, it appears to the user as an extraneous character. In
   earlier versions of Worpress it had a label, Path, but even then it was completely
   worthless.

 * A css file is where you expect to find css styles, rather than looking in a php
   file. It makes it convenient to add future admin css changes.
 * Also, I did not like where solution two placed the style in the admin HTML web
   page – above the head tag, although it seemed to work ok.

 * A 3rd solution is to add a custom css file to your theme css folder, named my-
   admin-style.css:
 *     ```
       /* removes letter p below text area in tinymce editor */
       .mce-path-item.mce-last {
           display: none !important;
       }
       ```
   
 * Then add this function, load_custom_wp_admin_style(), to your theme functions.
   php file:
 *     ```
       function load_custom_wp_admin_style() {
               wp_register_style( 'custom_wp_admin_css',
               get_template_directory_uri() . '/css/my-admin-style.css', false, '1.0.0' );
               wp_enqueue_style( 'custom_wp_admin_css' );
       }
       add_action( 'admin_enqueue_scripts', 'load_custom_wp_admin_style' );
       ```

   incorrect behavior for the multiline textbox.

 * Thanks, the second solution works, although I had to tweak the css:
 *     ```
       function my_theme_add_editor_styles(){
           ?>
               <style type="text/css">
                   .mce-path-item.mce-last {
                       display: none !important;
                   }
               </style>
           <?php
       }
       add_action( 'init', 'my_theme_add_editor_styles' );
       ```

 * I would like to remove this letter p too.
    It appears in Visual mode, not Text
   mode.

 * Forgot to mention, this problem only occurs when
    the required multiline textbox
   is open in “Visual” mode. In “Text” mode, no error appears if text is entered.

 * There is no javascript error.
    Near the top of the page, the message is: “Post
   draft updated.”
 * I expected to see this message (like Flutter) at the top:
    “Post was not published–
   You have errors in some fields, please check the fields below.”. And I expected
   each required missing field to be highlighted with a message: “Error: field can
   not be empty”.
 * I do have a workaround. In the Magic Fields javascript file, plugins\magic-fields\
   js\custom_fields\validate.js, commenting out the showErrors function appears 
   to solve the problem.
