Current Situation

Issue:

Rooms created under HB Accessories w/ icons will inconsistently, after several HB restarts (due to plug-in config change), all user-created rooms will disappear and all icons will revert back to the 'Default Room'. This has happened at least (3) times. This seems to be HB specific and not related to any particular plug-in. Forty-six (46) icons via six (6) plugins. Had about eight (8) rooms configured. Tired of re-building rooms.
