Is it normal for an update to dump all the code inside the plugin folder (wp-content\plugins\piklist\add-ons)?
All my code is now gone. This is really bad, or am I missing something?
There was no warning or “backup plugin folder prior to install” prompt during auto-update.
Is there I copy of the prior version somewhere?

@courtens– you should never make changes or additions to any plugins. When you update them your code will be deleted.
The only way to restore it is from a backup. Check with your host to see if they have backups.

Thank you @Steve. I did find a backup of the code. I got it back in place and working again.
But now I am worried that I have the code in a wrong place. (I only use it inside the administration section of WP – would I still need to move it to another folder?)
For right now the code is inside a folder named “blogs” in wp-content\plugins\piklist\add-ons (sitting right next to “piklist-demos”)
blogs.php is:
/* Plugin Name: Blogs Text Domain: blogs Description: Used to control Taxonomies for Blogs. Text Domain: blogs Domain Path: /blogs */To me Step 1 in Register your plugin with Piklist is not clearly specifying where to create the folder.
Thanks again for helping!
