• Hi, I’ve used qTranslate X to translate my website but it doesn’t fit perfectly “flatsome” theme and I would avoid future problem to site operators, so I decided to deactivate it.
    The result is that all text like title, menu, description etc. have the language [xx:] tag with all languages displayed.
    Furthermore the pages are duplicated several time in order to how many lagnuages I’ve translated my website.
    It’s a mess!
    So the question is: do I have to set up something before deactivate the plugin in order to clear the database from all languages?

    Ok, the plugin actually does not have a clear DB function as described in documentation (are you kidding?)
    Anyway, there is a plug in called qTranslate X Cleanup and WPML Import, but clear this mode is temporary not supported and I’ve had some problem after installing it so I did not proceeded to clear with it.

    I found a solution that worked here:
    https://techjourney.net/fully-uninstall-remove-qtranslate-x-with-database-cleanup-of-unwanted-language-translations/

    If you are not familiar with phpMyAdmin it can be a little scary but it doesn’t.
    I’ve used the query described with qTrqnslateX 3.4.6.8 and WP 4.9.8.
    After a DB backup I’ve tried the queryes once at time and notice if they really worked with a look at the table they pointed.

    The queryes won’t clear everything but it’s a great time saving.
    After running all queryes it’s a good idea to search the [:xx] tag inside the DB search field to find what it was not cleared by queryes and complete the work.
