Thanks for the feedback. We’re not running JetPack or anything else I can think of that would allow for any plugin to auto-update. The strange part was that the entire Events Calendar folder was deactivated manually (renamed in the /wp-content/plugins folder) via FTP since we lost access to the admin panel. Later that day, a duplicate of that folder appeared and activated itself, crashing the site again.

Anyway, if we’re going to make the move to update all related plugins and hope for the best, can you clarify in which order we should proceed? For example, should we update Community and Pro to most current, keep deactivated and then update Events Calendar to most current then reactivate all?

The Events Calendar – Inactive
Version 4.0.4

The Events Calendar: Community Events – Active
Version 3.12.1

The Events Calendar PRO – Active
Version 3.12.6

Just trying to avoid another issue, if possible.

Much appreciated!
