Managed hosting detected when site is not

    Hello,

    Trying this plugin for the first time. I am getting an error in Step 1 – Validation with a message that reads “Managed hosting?wordpresscom?detected” which can’t be true because I have moved my site off WordPress.com since September and am now using Bluehost (not managed). I have used All In One WordPress Migration plugin with no problem in the past.

    Why and how is this being detected? At present this seems like an artificial barrier to funnel users into the Pro plan. How and where can I make changes in my database or files to indicate that I am not being Managed by WordPress.com so that I can install the package on my localhost for development. The only plugin I have that is WordPress.com related is a Theme and Jetpack plugin, but it is not managed.

    Thanks, David

    Hi, It appears you may have migrated a plugin in the mu-plugins folder called wpcomsh-loader.php. This is what we look for to determine if you are on wp.com. Removing that should solve the issue.
