    After the plugin activation, my admin pages show the following error notice: “The plugin generated 1015 characters of unexpected output during activation. If you noticed headers already sent messages, problems with syndication feeds or other issues, try deactivating or removing the plugin.” Aside from that, I am getting missing images in many places. I tried to investigate the code and noticed that the plugin is a poorly made fork from GitHub from HumanMade\SharedMedia. What is the point of copying already available free plugin and releasing it in WP repository?

    Simple, clean and very useful for plenty of use cases involving Multisite setups—specially for multilingual sites where reusing pictorial content is a must!
