Q: After update, all menus are gone and plugin is not working at all
A: In situation like this you should check your PapApi.class.php file in your PostAffiliatePro plugin directory.

Without PapApi.class.php file plugin can not operate correctly and because of that it disables itself to prevent damaging the main pages with error or warning messages etc.
