There is an error message when I try to activate the plugin. The settings won't load. Please help
Here is the error message, even though it shows the plugin is activated:
Broken Link Checker installation failed. Try deactivating and then reactivating the plugin.
Failed to load plugin settings from the "wsblc_options" option.

Try completely uninstalling and reinstalling the plugin.

Did you uninstall through WordPress and allow it delete plugin data, or just delete the plugin folder via FTP? In this case you would need to uninstall it via WP for it to help.
Other than that, you could try manually deleting the "wsblc_options" entry from the "wp_options" table.
