 * Hi all,
 * unfortunately as of a recent update by wordpress the plugin stopped working for
   me. In fact under “media” I can no longer click on “replace”. The whole library
   has been changed and appears to me that the plugin stopped working entirely.
 * Any fixes for that in the future? Or is this just me having a bad day?
 * Thanks in advance!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fenable-media-replace-3%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@danbis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danbis/),
 * I just tried the plugin on a WordPress 5.7 installation and it works correctly.
 * Could you please flush your cache and try again? [https://help.shortpixel.com/article/426-how-to-clear-wordpress-cache](https://help.shortpixel.com/article/426-how-to-clear-wordpress-cache)
 * If that doesn’t work, can you please deactivate all other plugins, except Enable
   Media Replace, and try again? If that works, then the problem comes from another
   plugin 🙂
 * Let me know, please.
 * Best,

 * Hi Gerard,
 * No, I can’t flush the cash of “Enable Media Replace”. The plugin is not listed
   in “settings”.
 * I also deactivated all other plugins, returned to “media”, clicked on “edit” 
   and there is still no replace option to be found.
 * PS: I also did not install any new plugins. WordPress updated and the replace
   option disappeared…

 * Hi [@danbis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danbis/),
 * Enable Media Replace doesn’t have any cache, so indeed, you cannot flush its 
   cache :-). I meant to flush the cache of all the other components: plugins, hosting,
   browser… [https://help.shortpixel.com/article/426-how-to-clear-wordpress-cache](https://help.shortpixel.com/article/426-how-to-clear-wordpress-cache)
 * Could you please try it?
 * If that doesn’t work,
    1. deactivate all plugins except EMR
    2. go to the Media Library
    3. change to List View
    4. hover over an image
    5. send me a screenshot of it. For example: [https://i.imgur.com/Y7ELjFb.png](https://i.imgur.com/Y7ELjFb.png)

 * Hi Gerard,
 * I can’t clear the cache of plugins or pages. I also cannot find an option to 
   switch to “list” view in the media.
 * Sorry, your screenshot is a dead link, but in my WordPress the media page looks
   like this (your plugin being activated):

 * Hi [@danbis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danbis/),
 * I see what you mean, thank you. I believe the problem here is that you are using
   WordPress.com and not the self-hosted version WordPress.org. Here you have more
   information about that: [https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/self-hosted-wordpress-org-vs-free-wordpress-com-infograph/](https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/self-hosted-wordpress-org-vs-free-wordpress-com-infograph/)
 * WordPress.com may not be compatible with all plugins, including ours, and you
   cannot control what, how or when the plugins are compatible with it, as it all
   depends on WordPress.com.
 * If you need further assistance with this, I recommend you to contact their support
   team.
 * Thank you!

 * Ah, I was suspecting that.
 * I was in touch with them and they asked to get in touch with you.
 * For me that is a serious game changer as it would mean that I had to update the
   link to my CV pretty much every week.
 * Thanks for your help!
