 > I am finding this discussion very frustrating, The solutions offered
 here, should have been discussed **before** someone took it upon
 themselves to make this **major** change. I am befuddled to say the least.
 Just revert it, if it's good enough for Woo after making a bad decision,
 its good enough for us, right?


 Agree 100%. The old method of redirecting might be a bit over the top from
 a dev perspective, but you have made the plugin activate experience worse
 for regular people.

 If not revert (we all make mistakes, let's just undo and try again) Why
 not introduce a new single_activate hook or something for when only 1
 plugin is activated? Or an ajax message.

 To have an Activated message and the admin Menu doesn't even update is
 embarrassing.
