Add option to completely erase all data upon deletion of the plugin?

  • This seems like a great plugin, but enabling the telemetry function resulted in a fatal error. My only solution was to delete the plugin and try to reinstall it. However, when I tried to do so I got a message saying the plugin could not be activated because it would cause a fatal error.
    I found 1 leftover table from GDPR in phpMyAdmin after deleting the plugin and I had to delete this table in order to successfully reinstall the plugin. It looks like something regarding the fatal telemetry function was retained in the system after I deleted the plugin.
    For future updates, it might be a good idea to include an option to completely erase all data/files/tables from the system upon deleting the plugin, so our systems stay clean and there aren’t any problems reinstalling it if need be. Otherwise thanks for the good work!

    It is a good idea, and it is in my plans.

    However, we do not create custom database tables. The table you are referencing does not come from this plugin.
