Uninstall

When you uninstall FiboFilters, the following data is automatically removed:

  • FiboFilters database tables:
    • fibofilters_descriptors_main
    • fibofilters_doclist_main
    • fibofilters_sources_main
    • fibofilters_valuelist_main
  • most FiboFilters-related options stored in the database
  • the following transients:
    • fibofilters_sources_analyse_data
    • fibofilters_dismissed_tests
    • fibofilters_troubleshooting_async_tests_results
  • Action Scheduler actions and logs related to FiboFilters
  • FiboFilters log files located in /wp-content/uploads/wc-logs/
  • the descriptors cache directory: /wp-content/uploads/fibofilters/

Some data, such as plugin settings, version numbers, and filters, is not deleted automatically. This is intended to prevent the loss of your configuration during plugin reinstallation.

To remove this data manually, run the following WP-CLI command in the terminal:

wp eval 'global $wpdb; $wpdb->query( "DELETE FROM {$wpdb->prefix}options WHERE option_name LIKE \"fibofilters_%\"" );'

If you’re not familiar with WP-CLI, you can use the following code snippet instead:

global $wpdb;
$wpdb->query( 'DELETE FROM ' . $wpdb->options . ' WHERE option_name LIKE \'fibofilters_%\'' );

This code needs to be run only once. The Code Snippets plugin has an option to do that:
