# **🔍 What's Happening**

If your OTTO fixes show as **Deployed** in the dashboard but are not visible in your page source or SEO extensions, the most common cause is that the **OTTO WordPress plugin is deactivated** on your site.

OTTO uses a WordPress plugin to render its SEO optimizations as a real-time overlay. When the plugin is inactive, deployments are recorded in OTTO but nothing is applied to the live site.

# **✅ How to Fix It**

1. Log in to your **WordPress admin panel** (typically at `yourdomain.com/wp-admin`).
2. Navigate to **Plugins → Installed Plugins**.
3. Locate the **OTTO SEO** plugin.
4. If it shows as **Inactive**, click **Activate**.
5. Reload your live site and confirm your deployed fixes now appear.

# **⚠️ Why Does This Happen?**

The OTTO plugin can be deactivated unintentionally during WordPress updates, theme changes, or routine maintenance. Periodically verify the plugin is active, especially after WordPress environment updates.
