@redgar – Thanks, that’s way safer than just deleting. I am always hesitant to tinker.
Overall I should compliment all of you on how beautiful you look today. Everything looks fixed! Thanks so much.
Adding a ‘2’ to the end of the files in FTP and reinstalling each plugin worked and all of the old settings are there.
I am in the same boat as giselleaz. All of mine are gone, but I cannot even reinstall them. I get this…
Installing Plugin: Akismet 3.0.2
Downloading install package from https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/akismet.3.0.2.zip…
Unpacking the package…
Installing the plugin…
Destination folder already exists. /home/content/g/i/a/giantsfoot/html/wp-content/plugins/akismet/
Plugin install failed.
I am not an IT guy, so I have a funny feeling this is going to be costly and screw me pretty hard. I did back up to Dropbox before upgrading, at least. Not that I would know what to do with the backed up files.
