All Prices and Payments settings reset when Payment Manager plugin disabled

I am experiencing a troubling problem where all my settings in the “General” and Notifications” tabs within Prices and Payments are reset after temporarily disabling the Payment Manager plugin. I have not tested whether or not the Coupons are resetting since I don’t use this yet.

I am still in development phase and am transferring an existing database of listings, many of which are due for renewal. I want to have the site live and ready for them to renew into the new GD system, and for this reason I have turned off auto-expiry for the time being. The problem is that when I disable Prices and Payments (and other GD plugins) for troubleshooting other issues, this setting is reverted and all my expired listings disappear (are auto-reverted to free listings with expiry date changed to 1 year from today, thus “featured” turned off, etc.)

This is causing me to have to continually do back-end database work to “un-expire” my listings, update the actual expiry date, and re-categorize them to the correct price level.

All settings should be saved to the database, correct?

Luckily all settings under “Prices” and “Payments” are intact (Invoices are also still there).

Please advise if this is a bug, or if I have a problem with my installation.
