+    - *Troubleshooting Installation Issues*
+        The primary filename and primary folder name of the Child Themes Helper changed (in v2.0) from pasChildThemes and pasChildThemes.php to child-themes-helper and child-themes-helper.php. This *may* cause some problems during the installation. If you experience problems, I suggest that you deactivate the plugin and delete it. Then reinstall the Child Themes Helper v2.0 from the WordPress Plugins repository.

 - This plugin may be installed through the usual method of installing and activating WordPress plugins. The first time you open the Child Themes Helper plugin page on your dashboard, it will look a bit different from the previous version. Instead of a stack of menu options on the dashboard menu, there is a single menu option "Child Themes Helper" and it opens to a page featuring tabs across the top -- one for each area of functionality. Previous versions worked on the currently active Child Theme, but effective with this release, you are free to modify any child theme that has been created. You will still need to specify the "active" theme, but it does not have to be the "activated" theme. The first time you use it, you will only be able to set an active theme on the Options tab, or create a new child theme.

+- You can avoid update installation problems by:
+    1. Deactivate the Child Themes Helper plugin.
+    1. Update it as usual.
+    1. Reload your Plugins page.
+    1. Activate the Child Themes Helper plugin.
 
 - If you experience problems installing or activating version 2.0, after having an earlier version installed, please deactivate it, delete it, and then reinstall it. The primary folder name and the primary plugin filename changed with this release. It may conflict with an earlier version and crash upon install.
