    Hey there!

    We’ve been using wordpress-seo for a long time now and suddenly the plugin disappeared from the plugin list. I checked the plugins folder via FTP and it’s still there. I can’t reactivate it – since it’s not listed – and I can’t install it again – since the folder and files already exist.

    I’m not sure if this is specific to this plugin but it’s the only one missing so I figured someone might have an idea.

    Thanks a lot in advance!
    Gregor

  • Sometimes strange behavior may be caused by a plugin or theme conflict. The fastest way to rule out conflicts is to deactivate all non-Yoast plugins and switch to a standard theme like Twenty Fourteen. If this resolves the issue, you have a conflict and should activate one plugin at a time until you locate the conflict. Finally, after all plugins are active, switch to your theme. This will narrow down the conflict to a specific plugin or a theme conflict.

    If you are unfamiliar with checking for conflicts, we wrote a small guide that will walk you through the steps. You can find it here: How To Check For Plugin Conflicts – https://kb.yoast.com/article/253-how-to-check-for-plugin-conflicts

    It’s also worth noting that the plugin recently got a name change from “WordPress SEO by Yoast” to “Yoast SEO” and so it’s possible that it’s still in your list… but slightly lower in the alphabet.
