How to uninstall a broken plugin
A common problem you can run into while coding your own plugin or altering one is deleting the files before you uninstall it through the administration panel. This leads to multiple errors and quite a sticky mess! Below you will learn how to solve the problem.
Removing plugin database information:
You'll need to remove the plugin's information from the database. This is due to the Seditio's hooking system, since it grabs the information from the database and uses it to link the files.
To accomplish this task, go to your SQL editor ( most likely phpmyadmin ):
Click the "SQL" tab at the top.
Then copy and paste this sql query:
Kod:
DELETE FROM sed_plugins WHERE pl_code='YOUR-PLUGIN-CODE-HERE';
DELETE FROM sed_auth WHERE auth_code='plug' AND auth_option='YOUR-PLUGIN-CODE-HERE';
DELETE FROM sed_config WHERE config_owner='plug' AND config_cat='YOUR-PLUGIN-CODE-HERE';
Note: Though, make sure you use the right table prefix! Not everyone uses "sed_" as their table prefix. Also make sure to replace "YOUR-PLUGIN-CODE-HERE" with the plugin code. If you are unsure of the plugin's code, refer to the plugin's files.
Clearing internal cache:
Now that you have successfully removed the plugins information from the database, make sure to truncate your internal cache!
To do this:
Go to Adminstation -> Other -> Internal cache
Then click "Purge All"
And you're finished!
