Could be that your config is corrupt. Perhaps try validating it (https://jsonlint.com/?code=)?

No. It's valid.

Merged post

my mistake. I've only checked the plugin conf under /conf and not the /lang/en/ file :) There was a mistake ... why? I don't know. Remove the whole plugin - reinstalled - all fine :) THX for help and the very nice plugin.

No problem :)
