Problem: The client received a warning from Wordfence that files from the BuddyPress Multilingual plugin had been modified from their original states. The client wanted to know if reinstalling the BuddyPress Multilingual plugin would result in data loss. Solution: We assured the client that deleting the plugin files and downloading a fresh copy is safe, as all the data is stored in the database. We recommended the following steps: 1. Back up the database before making any changes. 2. Download the plugin from https://wpml.org/account/downloads/ or install it from the WordPress admin dashboard by navigating to Plugins → Add new → Commercial, provided the site is connected to receive automatic updates.
