Moving this to the Future Release milestone.

@jaswsinc @raamdev I tried testing it on my demo site ~ encountered some parse errors but I fixed it (I think). I saw the activation message once but when I tried redoing it, I can't see it anymore. :( wpsharks/comet-cache-pro@786dff5

@kristineds Try disabling Plugin Deletion Safeguards in ZenCache → Plugin Options → Plugin Deletion Safeguards and then deleting and uninstalling ZenCache. Then go in and install your modified version again.

It sounds to me like the welcomed option value got saved as 1, so you didn't see it show up again.

Let me know when you've run this through a successful test and I'll do some testing of my own. :-)
