3. Copy 'moodle-block_edwiser_site_monitor/' to '/blocks/' if you have not already done so.
4. Go back in as an administrator and follow standard the 'plugin' update notification. If needed, go to 'Site administration' -> 'Notifications' if this does not happen.
5. Put Moodle out of Maintenance Mode.
6. You may need to check that the permissions within the 'moodle-block_edwiser_site_monitor/' folder are 755 for folders and 644 for files.
