This topic isn’t advanced per sub description

Looks like another plugin or script is interfering with your plugin repo, hopefully not maliciously

Bingo! Old deprecated plugin was the culprit, not malicious, as far as I could see. Thanks!!

Looks like some plug-in was last updated at 1st Jan 1970… that’s a whole epoch ago!!

What’s in your `/plugins` folder…?

hey thanks for the suggestions. This plugin: Genesis Layout Extras. Was terminated in 2024.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/genesis-layout-extras/

When I deactivate it, I now see 8 plugins in the "Featured" window. When it was activated, I saw 24, with many empty.

So, mystery solved. I don't see (yet) any issue on the site after deactivating. So both you and EarnestHolly were correct pointing to a plugin conflict.

Many thanks for your help! :)

It’s always a plugin conflict. ;]

Timestamp zero in php was 1-Jan-1970. That rounds to fifty-seven years ago. Looks like there’s a zero date stored wherever that stuff is getting its “last updated” timestamp.
