Although my stafflist database was initially still there after the upgrade it somehow disappeared and was replaced by a single entry. I ended up just re-entering our staff and adjusting the css so that the new version worked in my theme so I no longer need to know how to roll back. But I guess it’s worth noting that something went terribly wrong when applying the update.
Thanks for the great plugin. Besides this little inconvenience it’s worked out great!

Hello @ckwill90,
We removed support for direct embedding StaffList into a .php template using the class instantiation in favor of shortcodes with attributes. It’s possible if you were using this method to insert your StaffList, that is why it wouldn’t display.
The shortcode format is as such:
[stafflist] //all records, default row count
[stafflist rows=10] //all records, custom row count
[stafflist subset=”building:a”] //subset of records
You may view the change log, here:

If you have any other questions, please refer to the StaffList documentation, or post a follow-up to this thread.
I realize this post was quite awhile ago. For the record, I have and always have used the shortcode for stafflist. I noticed today update 2.3.2 which “Fixed a bug that cleans and resets data-tables upon activation’. I’ve just been backing up the sql table for stafflist because every time I update the plugin it wipes out the entire table. After this update, it again wiped out the table. I’m updating this as an FYI. Thank you!

Is it possible the data-table was cleaned w/ upgrade to v2.3.1 (this was the one with the issue), which came immediately before v2.3.2?
Deactivating OR Uninstalling will certainly remove StaffList’s data-tables, but updating the plugin should not. If you have the availability, it would be helpful to get your assistance in troubleshooting, as we have not been able to reproduce your issue with v2.3.2.
Best
