Yeah, I’d still look at the plugin first too. Monday drops on affiliate pages + a WP update is usually not some deep Google mystery, it’s usually something dumb in the rendered output. I’ve seen schema/canonicals get altered by “minor” updates and GSC goes weird for a few days. If the pages still index and the drop is mostly in queries/impressions, I’d be a lot less dramatic about it. Just my experience.
