 * Hi,
 * we are facing the issue that the wpdatatables plugin gets deactivated all couple
   hours/days and we have to manually activate it.
 * We can not see any related errors in the WP DEBUG error log and tested different
   things.
 * What can we do? Is it a general problem of the plugin?
 * Kind regards,
   Jan

 * Hello,
   We are unable to reproduce this issue and at the moment, you are the only
   User who reported it, so it might be tricky to isolate what happens specifically
   on your Site.Can you please check your “System info” Tab in our Plugin’s back-
   end Dashboard, and send us a couple of screenshots, such as , what is your current
   WordPress Version installed, what is the PHP Version on your Server;Do you have
   our latest Lite Plugin version 3.4.2.3 installed, etc?( If you don’t have the
   latest version, please update and purge cache on Site);Can you also confirm are
   you using our Lite or Premium wpDataTables version?And, do you know did you perhaps
   recently upgrade your version of WordPress/ or changed the PHP Version on the
   Hosting Server, any major changes like that;Or perhaps if you updated any other
   Plugin when this started happening?–It might be caused by some kind of a strange
   conflict between wpDataTables and another Plugin on your Site.You could also 
   try this.The safest way is to make a separate, Staging version of the Site, and
   then try this :Change your current Theme, and disable all other Plugins, just
   leave wpDataTables active, then wait for two/three days and check if it disables.
   If it does not, that indicates it might be another Plugin which is doing this/
   causing a conflict on Site that somehow disables our Plugin.If that is the case,
   here is how we usually look for conflicts :Start activating other plugins one
   by one, and after each activation refresh the page and wait for the same period
   of Time, to see if the issue occurred. Once it does reoccur, you will have found
   the plugin causing the issue.( I realise that might be tricky, since you would
   need to wait a certain time after each attempt/ but that is the only way to test
   for conflicts and be certain)Let us know how it goes, if you can confirm those
   System Info details, and if you recall if some major change/or Plugin update 
   happened on your Site when this issue started;and if you can please do some tests,
   to try and isolate it on Staging.Thank you.
