Installation Error: The plugin generated XXX characters of unexpected output during activation..... #75

Strange I got this error when installing the latest CFDB on 2 sites today.

The plugin generated XXX characters of unexpected output during activation. If you notice “headers already sent” messages, problems with syndication feeds or other issues, try deactivating or removing this plugin.

Is there an error in your plugin code? This site here suggests how to fix it, but I'm not a developer. Can you guys troubleshoot it and update it? Here is the site that shows how they've been fixing that same error on their plugins: https://www.toddlahman.com/the-plugin-generated-x-characters-of-unexpected-output-during-activation/

Typically you can ignore this error message which only appears during installation. The plugin should work normally.
