Plugin disappeared altogether upon update?

Oh my, that does sound strange. When you go to the Plugins screen of your dashboard for activating and deactivating plugins, you don’t see it listed?

It is not listed in either ‘inactive’ or ‘recently active’ plugins, but when I go in through my FTP, it shows that I have the plugin there.

I had it on two different sites, and had the same result when I updated it in each site.

Do you have any level of debug logging enabled for your WordPress site that you can share? These can be emailed to [email protected] if you do.

Also, in your plugins screen, try selecting “All” and searching for the plugin. I have a theory that a recent change might be the cause of this breakage. One of the files I renamed may cause WordPress to lose track of Send to Kindle being installed.

David,
I went to ‘all’ and searched for it and it was there and I could activate it. Weird.
Was it always called “Amazon Send to Kindle” or just “Send to Kindle” before?

I may have overlooked this when I deleted and reinstalled it (it might have been there the whole time and I didn’t see it). But when I upgraded from within the WordPress dashboard it did “disappear” and give me a notification error that the plugin directory (as it was named) no longer existed.

Thanks for the tip, I just checked and it seems to be working again.

Glad to hear things are working for you, Stevie. This is definitely our bad for releasing an update that causes the plugin to deactivate itself, and I apologize for not doing more testing after reorganizing files. I will make a sticky about this issue as I am sure it is probably widespread, especially for users with a large number of plugins.
