I just read a thought-provoking entry on the Weblog Tools Collection about uninstalling plugins. WordPress offers a way to “Activate” or “Deactivate” any plugins that are in the wp-plugins directory of your WordPress installation. It does not, however, offer a “Delete” or “Remove” button. Very interesting. There are database entries also that should probably be removed when you delete a plugin as well. There was one comment in particular about a plugin developer called GamerZ who includes an “Uninstall” button in the administration panel for each of his plugins. Hmmmmm. Sounds like a really good idea. Time to polish the dust off of the plugins I’ve developed and work out how to include an “Uninstall” button!
