[Plugin: MailPress] No way to uninstall!

  • Sorry, as good or not this plugin might be, but putting loads of stuff all over the DB but give NO WAY to uninstall and remove all that again is just a NO GO. I have other plugins that still think MailPress is installed!

    Sorry, but as this plugin is already at v5 there is no excuse for not having a uninstall routine, so sadly this is a 1 of 5 rating from me.

    Implement Uninstall asap, please.

    Thanks for the info, I did not know that. But it is very well hidden there, you have to admit. Not everyone downloads the zip, some install from within WordPress. I have checked the readme file that comes with the plugin, the official plugin homepage, faq and whatever is there to find about thisplugin for the words “uninstall” and “reset” and NOWHERE was mentioned that there is an uninstall file within the zip.

    Anyway, I just corrected my negative rating of thisplugin because of this, but I strongly recommend to mention somewhere that there is an uninstall plugin within the plugin zip (better even: add it to the main plugin).

    Yes please put a link or something to uninstall routine. After first install of your amazing plugin I screwed something and had to uninstall it. I had a nightmarish time installing and deactivating&deleting a few times because something was not deleted and the plugin didn’t worked anymore when re-installed. From the beginning I saw database tables wheren’t being deleted and took care of this but didn’t realize there was data added to wordpress options table. Once it was deleted and the plugin reinstalled for n time it worked. Now it’s “funny” to know that all this could had been done automatically in a few seconds…

    Trying to uninstall from within wordpress (MP 5.1, WP 3.2.1)

    Fatal error: Class ‘MP_uninstall’ not found in […]/wp-content/plugins/mailpress/uninstall.php on line 1

    What do I do now?

    Found in a french forum:

    Paste

    <?php
    require_once(‘mp-includes/class/MP_uninstall.class.php’);
    new MP_uninstall(); ?>

    into uninstall.php as first line.
