Posted January 12, 20241 yr I've have a lot of old hooks, that are left over from outdated plugins, how I can delete them?
January 12, 20241 yr Usually, you'd just uninstall the old/disabled plugins. Or are you saying you have extra folders/files in the /plugins folder after uninstalling the plugins?
January 12, 20241 yr Author files I can delete, but in Admin CP I have 53 3rd part hooks, and most of them ale linked to non existing files.
January 12, 20241 yr How did you even end up with 53 unlinked/leftover hook files in the table? 🤨 As long as you install/uninstall the plugins correctly, it shouldn't happen. The first step would be to figure out how it happened to prevent it. Edited January 12, 20241 yr by teraßyte

The first step would be to figure out how it happened to prevent it. I saw one like this today. Apparently, the user deleted the app folder without uninstalling it and then it shows a couple of “unlinked” hooks in the Support section and the Not Installed App (or something) in the Applications page.
January 13, 20241 yr Author I've uninstalled apps that were disabled after the update, all data tables are present in db.
January 13, 20241 yr Ah, that makes sense then. They're outdated applications' hooks rather than plugins' ones.

In that case you will have to delete all the database stuff added by third party apps and hooks manually. Make sure to make a backup of the database beforehand though.
