I host a lot of sites on our Plesk server and use Plesk’s WordPress utility to update plugins and themes on all sites automatically. However, regardles of what plugins Plesk is updating, I notice that any currently enabled Newspaper plugins become deactivated requiring me to login to all the sites that use the theme and manually reenable the plugins. This isinconvenient to say the least as I’m not an admin on all the sites in question so technically I should not be logging into a customer site without express permission.
Please investigate.
Hi,
So plugins belonging to this theme are the only ones that are being deactivated? Are only some of the theme plugins deactivating or all of theme plugins that are active?
There were a couple of cases where the tagDiv composer and the mobile theme plugin kept deactivating randomly, but these were very rare and hard to investigate. A solution was provided in one of those two cases

Thanks
Sorry for the delay replying – i didn’t get a notification.
Yes, It’s all the Newspaper plugings that deactivate when i update all my sites using the WordPress management feature from the Plesk control panel.
Quite unusual, the theme will deactivate only the theme plugins, after an update. They then have to be updated and activated.
The composer and social counter should update automatically but if this fails they have to be updated manually in the theme plugins panel. So only after a theme would something like this happen.
Maybe that automatic update system triggers the theme plugins to be deactivated, if this happens when updating a random plugin and not the actual theme. I can’t say why it’s happening unfortunately.
