 * With the new updates, on some sites (we have hundreds), the checkboxes are missing
   next to the options in the Settings. e.g. on the System tweaks screen, next to
   Protect System Files, Disable Directory Browsing, Disable PHP in Uploads, Disable
   PHP in Plugins and
    Disable PHP in Themes. Any clues?

 * Hi caordawebsol,
 * Check for any javascript errors in your browser’s Developer Console.

 * Nothing of any significance there I’m afraid.

 * Ok, I see.
 * And it’s all checkboxes throughout the settings ? (So it’s the same eg under 
   the **WordPress Tweaks** tab and **Hide Backend** tab).
 * Do the checkbox input elements actually exist (but perhaps hidden by css) when
   inspecting the page HTML ?
