Just a heads-up – when updating to V3.0.0, the previous settings are not retained. This will cause post formatting issues (paragraphing removed), unless you select and re-save your (previous) settings. Thanks. http://wordpress.org/plugins/disabler/ Thanks for the heads up kokopelli. I cannot reproduce the issue. I installed v2.3.1 on a local WordPress 3.8 installation, enabled all the available options and updated it to v3.0.0 and the settings did persist. It would be very helpful if you answer the following questions. Which version of WordPress and PHP are you running? Did you choose to update the plugin from the “Plugins” page or did you manually update it by uploading the newer version? Which Disabler options do you have enabled? WordPress V3.8, PHP V5.3.28 Automatic update via backend Both options checked under Privacy Settings Can’t remember from which version we upgraded, might have been V2.3. Thanks. I guess you skipped v2.3.1 and updated from v2.3 to v3.0.0. Version 2.3 had a problem saving the settings which was fixed in v2.3.1 From the Changelog 2.3.1 29 September, 2012 by Ipstenu You’d like to save options, no? 2.3 28 September, 2012 by Ipstenu XML-RPC OK, thanks.
