Hello @nek12,
To completely remove our plugin, you must first uninstall it via the website’s Dashboard. After this is done, make sure that all of the following directories are removed as well:
- wp-content/plugins/sg-cachepress/
- wp-content/uploads/siteground-optimizer-assets/
- wp-content/cache/sgo-cache/
Additionally, purge any database records containing the term siteground_optimizer
.
Our plugin also inserts .htaccess rules, each preceded by a comment indicating its origin from SiteGround Speed Optimizer. For example:
# HTTPS forced by SG-Optimizer
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
? ? RewriteEngine On
? ? RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https
? ? RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
? ? RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]</IfModule>
# END HTTPS
Make sure to remove these rules as well. Once the above has been completed, the plugin should no longer be listed in any capacity.
Best Regards,
Gergana Petrova
