michalm_merged Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 I've have a lot of old hooks, that are left over from outdated plugins, how I can delete them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teraßyte Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michalm_merged Posted January 12 Author Share Posted January 12 files I can delete, but in Admin CP I have 53 3rd part hooks, and most of them ale linked to non existing files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adriano Faria Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Most likely they are leftover records in core_hooks table. michalm_merged 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teraßyte Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 (edited) 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 by teraßyte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

michalm_merged Posted January 13 Author Share Posted January 13 I've uninstalled apps that were disabled after the update, all data tables are present in db. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teraßyte Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Ah, that makes sense then. They're outdated applications' hooks rather than plugins' ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.
