Beware the Plugin "Social Pug"!

I had it installed on my site and after a few weeks of using it, it successfully made all of my content DISAPPEAR!

In my admin panel everything looked normal. On my live site, only my header, and sidebar were visible. All the content I had worked so hard on was gone!

I had to contact WA support to figure it out. Luckily, they identified that this plugin was causing the problem and deactivated it.

My content was restored! Hooray, and thank you to the WA support team!

Take care everyone!

Glad you were able to get this all sorted out, Mike. It's very scary to go through that! With so many plug-ins to choose from, I'm sure you'll quickly find something else to replace it.

I will tell you guys that I noticed there is an update for this plugin available today. However, I think I'll just delete it and find something else.

Thanks for the concern, everyone. That scared me to death!

Wow, what a scary thought, Mike. Thanks for sharing this. I'll make sure not to install that Social Pug plugin.

Can I ask where you went to contact WA Support? I am having an issue with Jaaxy and have not found a support e-mail or number to contact them.

I actually went to Kyle's (owner) profile and went to PM him. Took me directly to support ticket.
