I imported a site to Local via a .zip back up from ManageWP. Everything installed with no issues but when I go to the site, all the plugins are missing. The strange thing is that the theme file is correct and when I go to the site folder, inside wp-content the plugins folder is there with all the plugins from the live site. They just aren’t showing on the site or in the wp-admin dashboard.
I feel like this is a simple fix but for some reason I can’t wrap my head around it.
Hi @ptday64! It’s tough to say for sure where things may have dropped off. Does the site have any security plugins or backup files? Sometimes those can lead to an import issue.
As a workaround, you could try manually importing the plugin directory via Site Shell. Or you could just wipe out the whole WP-Content directory and try manually importing a fresh copy.
