 * The latest update has caused the plugin to disappear. It’s completely gone from
   my plugins page and I can’t find any trace of it.
 * I’m using the Salient theme.

 * I had the same thing happen to me after the last update. I get the error that
   the file exists, but the plugin is not there and there is no trace of it at all.
   Have yet to find anyone to help.

 * My plugin has disappeared after updating plugin to latest version and not only
   that but also my product description text colour is also changed to white colour
   which means it does not show in admin unless i highlight it however on front 
   end it is showing same as before in black colour.
    Please help.

 * I just reinstalled the plugin and it seemed to solve the problem. I say seemed
   because I had some issues in which links (categories and archives) on my site
   did not work and caused a 404 not found error. After I reset this plugin to default
   settings (Found under General tab) the problem was resolved.

 * I also have this problem after updating WordPress. It does not appear anywhere
   in my list of plugins, nor in the dashboard sidebar, nor within the post/page
   editor. When I try to install the plugin again, it tells me that it is already
   installed. I don’t want to uninstall because I think I will lose all my settings.
 * Any help would be very much appreciated.
