this is the first time that I’m trying to install a plugin so I have never checked if it exists or not before today.
the problem is in the local version and in the online version.
thanks 🙂
Since your site is self-hosted, you can navigate to the folder wp-content -> plugins and add “zzzzz_” to the front of all plugins. This will disable all plugins without breaking anything. From there, see if your Plugins tab returns in the WordPress backend. If nothing happens, change the naming structure back.
After that, you’ll want to download all of the files from your theme, which can be found in wp-content -> themes -> YOUR_THEME_NAME. From there, download the files, and KEEP A BACKUP.
