    Hi Guys,

    I’m checking all my updates if they are compatible to GDPR and now I wanted to check “Vafpress Post Formats UI”, but I can’t seem to acces their website.

    What is this plugin anyway? Does it give big trouble when I deactivate it?

    I hope someone can explain me what it is exactly.
    Thanks in advance.

    Cheers!

    This seems to be from a 7 year old plugin that’s not on wordpress.org: https://github.com/vafour/vafpress-post-formats-ui

    As it’s abandoned, you should consider removing it.

    Thank you. Well that sounds odd..

    I have found what it is for; it’s for creating galleries and such in my posts. So I have asked my template developer if she knows more about it.

    I shall post it here, when I know more. For those who have the same question.

    My client installed that plug in, even after I told her not to do it(it was suggested by the theme I have the impression), and the post title field disappeared

    I have talked to my theme developer and she replied:

    “ The “Vafpress Post Formats UI” plugin was created by Vafpress which was a plugin author that we collaborated with.

    Vafpress doesn’t work on the plugin any longer, however we’ve personally kept it updated to make sure it’s compatible with the latest version of WordPress.

    The changes we make to the plugin are not publicly available outside the theme.

    It’s a simple plugin that adds additional post format options to the post editor. The plugin doesn’t collect any personal data.”

    My theme was created by Solopine.
    Just to inform you who are wondering.
