Uninstall is not clean ?

    Hello,

    I uninstalled once your plugin and a test made a few weeks later on Google PageSpeed still reports presence of your code on my homepage


    <a href="https://browserupdate.org/" rel="noopener" onclick="javascript:window.open('https://browserupdate.org/', '_blank', 'noopener')…" data-wahfont="12">

    I then re-install it to check if there is any setting to check to remove any trace completely but I found none.

    Can you tell me how to completely uninstall if I ever want to test that again ?

    Thanks for your help

    Hi Eric,

    Do me a favour and check if you have a plugin called Cookie Law Info enabled. Disable it and see if the artefact disappears. Report back here.

    The plugin itself definitely removes itself from the WordPress database but it will not remove any code that has been placed by another party.

    Hello,

    thanks a lot for your quick reply.

    I use a plugin for GDPR named CookieYes but Cookie Law Info could be the previous name of the plugin…

    I will check this when time permits and let you know the result here

    Any chance you ran a test in the past two weeks? Otherwise, I’m going to set this issue to resolved.

    Hello,

    The code is no more trapped by PageSpeed Insight tool if the plugin CookieYes is also deactivated.

    I will chase CookieYes support why the hell are they doing that ?

    This ticket can be closed.

    Thanks a lot for your help and your plugin

    That’s brilliant news! If you don’t mind, I’d love it if you could let me know what the CookieYes lot say when they get back to you.

    Hello,

    I got a procedure to follow to upload script touched by CookieYes but not tested yet…

    You’ll find the forum post at https://wordpress.org/support/topic/some-javascript-kept-in-place-even-after-their-plugin-uninstallation/#post-18424229

    Hoping it will be useful for you !

    Why do you think this is useful for me?

    When my plugin will be removed via the admin panel, it won’t leave any traces behind.

    Just because you asked me to report answer from CookieYes support…

    Your plugin has the correct behavior what is not the case of CookieYes plugin that should not prevent removal of scripts from other plugins. It could be I’ll change to another GDPR plugin to avoid that…

    Huge thanks for your useful plugin and hint about that CookieYes problem.

    Ah, apols, I take the hit. Understood to get inspired to implement what the CookieYes team suggested. All good. Thanks for coming back.
