[Plugin: StatSurfer] Unable to use Dashboard after activating plugin

  • Just trying out this plugin for the first time.
    I am quite disappointed that it is the version that broke my Dashboard.

    Here’s the readout:

    Warning: include(install_pl.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/thestrayworld/public_html/wp-content/plugins/statsurfer/statsurfer.php on line 35

    Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening ‘install_pl.php’ for inclusion (include_path=’.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear’) in /home/thestrayworld/public_html/wp-content/plugins/statsurfer/statsurfer.php on line 35

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function StatSurfer_CreateTable() in /home/thestrayworld/public_html/wp-content/plugins/statsurfer/statsurfer.php on line 139

    I hope you can offer a suggestion. Meanwhile, I need to find a way to deactivate the plugin manually.

  • Same with me. Does not allow me the option of getting into my dashboard to deactivate it. This plug in is a total piece of garbage.

    The way I was able to get around the lack of a dashboard page was to pull up my blog on an internet browser just to read it as a guest would (instead of logging in as an admin.).

    I have an email notification sent to me whenever someone leaves a comment to my blog with a backdoor email address. So, if you have your blog set up to sent notifications to you, go ahead and leave a general comment on one of your articles. After that, the system will send you a notification update and a login address that will take you directly to your comment page.

    Once there, your sidebar dashboard should be available and you can click over to the plug-in page and deactivate the software. I have completely deleted the plugin from my dashboard, and my system seems to be running fine for now.

    Hope that helps.

    Thanks for the suggestion.

    I managed to solve the problem by using Filezilla to delete the entire statsurfer folder.

    Then I was able to log into WordPress. A one-time only notification read statsurfer had been deactivated and that was that.
