• Hi there,

    Your actual support was not helpful in any sense with this issue (they told me to go reach out to WordPress ?? ?? ) so I’m posting this here for others to see.

    Upon downloading directly from the repo and attempting to activate the CallTrackingMetrics plugin, you will find you cannot – WordPress will tell you the plugin header is invalid.

    You can go to the plugins list and activate from there, which works fine.

    However, the reason this is happening is because the team left a folder named “trunk” in the plugin files and WordPress doesn’t know what to do with the identical plugin files that are there (it thinks it’s a plugin inside of a directory inside of a plugin which… technically it is). Deleting that directory will solve the problem once and for all, and the CTM WP plugin dev team should release a new version onto the repo sans this directory.
