Why delete or disable options do not work

    I notice that some “Delete” “Disable” (autoload) options work, and others do not.

    I was trying to delete the autoloading of options for deleted plugins and themes. Most of these did not work. However, some did work.

    I know for sure that the options that did NOT work belonged to plugins or themes I had deleted from the server some time ago. Some I may have deleted without uninstalling the normal way through the WordPress Admin panel. (Maybe that’s a bit No-No?)

    Is it possible that your plugin checks to see if the folders for plugins or themes exist before deleting options or table entries?

    The options I tried to disable from loading are clearly entries in the database and are not stored in the folders where the themes or plugins used to reside.

    I really *want* to love your plugin, but I think it needs a bit more work.

    Hey @inge12! ??

    It’s challenging to pinpoint the source of this issue without more details. When deleting an entry, it might take a little time to disappear from the table, especially if you have a lot of options.

    If it persists, please check your developer console and PHP logs to see if any errors occur during this process. Without a way to reproduce this behavior, it’s difficult to take action.

    Additionally, ensure that the options that aren’t being deleted aren’t being recreated by any cron jobs or other processes.
