 * Hi,
 * I had to restore my site from backup. Now I found out that UpdraftPlus created
   new prefix for plugins.
 * For example: WMPJ-Settings if now Updraft-Settings, Contact form 7 is now – Updraft-
   forms or elementor etc.
 * I affects only plugins and I can’t change any settings of this plugins.
 * The result: I can edit like search forms in elementor correctly, but the frontend
   it shows me the old and backup version.
 * How can get back to normal? Thx
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Frestoring-problems-2%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Can you try adding the following to your wp-config.php
 * define(‘UPDRAFTPLUS_DISABLE_TOP_LEVEL_MENU_ENTRY’, true);

 * Hi,
 * DidN#t place the code, as I don’t know where in the config.php I should place
   it.
 * I refreshed my plugins and it got back to normal. Except the plugin which is 
   responsible for search forms and the WPJM settings still not changing.

 * I think the issue was related to a issue with the plugin that we released a fix
   for. Can you try removing and reinstalling the plugins that are still having 
   issues?

 * Hi I did remove and re-installed but nothing changed. Still the old sites in 
   frontend visible and the adjustments in the backend aren’t caching up. It looks
   like UpdraftPlus is blocking my search forms, load more button, and blocking 
   my listings.

 * Could you upload a backup of your plugins to something like Google Drive so I
   can download them to try and replicate your issue?
