Title: Plugin disappeared after 3.1 update – solved Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # Plugin disappeared after 3.1 update – solved * Resolved [quatrel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/quatrel/) * (@quatrel) * [12 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-disappeared-after-31-update-solved/) * I updated the plugin on the 23rd with 3.1 and there was a confirmation message that the plugin was upgraded and activated. * Afterwards it disappeared from the menu. Reinstallation did not work, because the directory was there. * The solution was to rename the directory backwpup and to reinstall the plugin. * Everything works fine now. * Seems the issue was that the file backwpup.php was not copied into the directory by the upgrade procedure. * [http://wordpress.org/plugins/backwpup/](http://wordpress.org/plugins/backwpup/) Viewing 1 replies (of 1 total) * [Caspar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/friendlyghost/) * (@friendlyghost) * [12 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-disappeared-after-31-update-solved/#post-4442294) * Thanks for the feedback!
