 * Hi,
 * Is there a reason why the plugin gets deactivated after updating it?
 * Thanks

 * Hi,
 * Just tested on one of my websites. It did not deactivate the plugin after the
   update.
 * How did you update it? Automatically via WordPress menu or manually via FTP?

 * Automatically via WordPress. It happened with another plugin I updated as well,
   but then with two others it didn’t.

 * I believe it is WordPress issue, not related to any plugin. Marking as resolved.
   However, if it happens again let me know. Thanks!
