 * Thanks for the response Sania!
 * I actually found that first thread and read it yesterday. I’m not sure if my 
   situation is different, as I’m pretty new to this, but the site doesn’t appear
   to be hacked. Scans from Wordfence and Sitelock found nothing. Bluehost is running
   a scan on their side but it hasn’t finished yet. I of course will keep monitoring
   for any signs of site compromise.
 * Is there any way that a WordPress update could prompt the default plugins to 
   re-install? Or for the default setting of auto-update to be re-selected?
