    Hello,

    After upgrading to WP 3.6 wp-polls is causing too many problems. Although I consider wp polls a great plugin, now I find myself in the situation where i need to completely remove wp-polls from WordPress and database. I know how to remove it from WordPress, and how to delete the wp-pollsa, wp-pollsip, and wp-pollsq, what I need to know if how to remove the leftover from the other tables and from which other tables in the database including from the wp-options.

    If the creator of this plugin can help me out here it will be highly appreciated.

    Thanks,

    What problems are you facing?

    You can uninstall WP-Polls via the WP-Admin -> Polls -> Polls Uninstall

    It was shooting an already sent header error.
    I already did the wp-admin uninstalled, but the plugin is leaving behind many rows and tables in the database.

    Now I only need the specifics of this:
    I need to completely remove wp-polls from the WordPress database. There are many other rows and tables that the plugin doesn’t remove (p-pollsa, wp-pollsip, and wp-pollsq) I already removed these tables, but there is still many rows in other tables that also need to be removed.

    I just need to know which one are the other rows I need to remove.

    Basically is conflicting somehow and not letting me save posts.

    Already sent heard error might be due to some other plugins.

    The plugin only leaves rows in wp_options and those option_key starts with poll_

    DELECT FROM wp_options WHERE option_name LIKE ('poll_%');
    DELECT FROM wp_options WHERE option_name = 'widget_polls-widget';

    I don’t know…

    Disabling all the plugins and turning them on one by one wp polls was the only one that caused the “Saving Draft” message to stay on forever.

    Thanks for the SQL commands, I really appreciate!
