Setup requires hand-editing core files
Manual file.php edits and undocumented setup make installing the plugin confusing, and the plugin may not appear afterward.

What's going wrong
Several site owners say they could not work out how to set up this plugin. The guidance requires pasting code into a core WordPress file, and reviewers report the placement differs from the instructions, so the change does not take effect. Others installed the files but could not find the plugin in the admin list, or saw no settings anywhere afterward. Those who got it working say it took a lot of trial and error. A fix would replace hand-edited core files with a guided setup that checks each step and confirms the filter is active.
