    If you disable the plugin for any reason, it disables the DEFAULT WordPress mime-types.

    How can you disabling the plugin without damaging WordPress core?

    Hi @ihuman,

    This should not happen, sorry. The plugin should “return” default MIMEs back. I’ll try to reproduce the issue in my test environment.

    Could you please describe in more detail what you mean by “it disables the DEFAULT MIME types”? What is broken for you?

    Hi @ihuman,

    I ran some tests and didn’t find any “damage” caused by EML’s deactivation. Moreover, I checked the code once again and made sure that all the plugin does is it uses a few WP core filters. This means that when deactivated it simply does not affect the core at all.

    MIME types are not stored in the database or something. In the WP core, the MIME types list is inscribed in the code, so when the filter is not being used, then no changes to the MIME types are being made on WP installation’s run.
