 * [@tiberiumanolache](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tiberiumanolache/),
 * In which file you found base64 obfuscated code?
 * WordPress.org does’t allow this code? Could you show us sample?
 * [@jdembowski](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jdembowski/) we don’t have 
   base64 obfuscated in our plugin file. I think, it’s an intentional negative review.
   Could you check it please.
 * Thank you

 * The files with base64 code are:
 * woo-variation-gallery/assets/css/theme-support.css
    woo-variation-gallery/assets/
   css/slick.css woo-variation-gallery/assets/css/frontend.css woo-variation-gallery/
   assets/css/gwp-admin-notice.css woo-variation-gallery/assets/css/gwp-admin.css
   woo-variation-gallery/assets/css/admin.css woo-variation-gallery/assets/js/theme-
   support woo-variation-gallery/assets/js/gwp-admin.js woo-variation-gallery/assets/
   js/frontend.js woo-variation-gallery/assets/js/admin.js
 * Sample code in woo-variation-gallery/assets/css/theme-support.css (a short one)
   on line 9:

 * Has this plugin completely removed? Actually, many of my projects are on it. 
   It’s been more than 2 weeks, I couldn’t download this plugin.
 * Is there any chances to come back?
 * Thank You

 * The plugin page tells you the status
 * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/woo-variation-gallery/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/woo-variation-gallery/)
 * I will say that the vast majority of cases can be resolved, and most plugins 
   can be restored. The plugin developer has been notified.
