How Do I Delete Cached Job Manager Settings in phpmyadmin

Hi there,

I am doing some web dev for a news site. My client uses WP Engine to host the site, as well as a staging site, to test themes and plugins and whatnot. The site is currently using a new theme that we just switched to, the Prime News theme from WP Zoom.

Prior to migrating the new theme from staged to production, I had tested the WP Job Manager plugin, and it worked perfectly. This is what it looked like:

I decided to go ahead and delete the plugin from staging while I was testing some other things, and did not install again before I migrated.

We migrate everything over, and I go to install the plugin, on the live site with the new theme. I set the settings I wanted like I had set in the staged site, but the job submission page looked like this:
https://citrusheightssentinel.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/not-working.jpg

I thought maybe it was grabbing some weird css from the theme for some reason, but there aren’t css controls for the plugin, and tweaking direct css settings did not work either. I concluded that for some reason it must not have installed correctly on the live site.

I uninstalled the plugin, and reinstalled it again – but for some reason, it apparently didn’t actually delete the plugin internally, because it was pre-populated with my settings I had changed the first time I installed it. I uninstalled and reinstalled again several times, all with the same effect.

Long story short on solutions I tried and things I considered:
– I installed on the staged site again to make sure I wasn’t crazy
– When I deleted the plugin in staging, I did not install any other plugins at all, so I know that plugin compatibility wasn’t an issue on the new site
– I purged the page-cache, the CDN cache, and the object cache
– WP Engine purged all the caches
– After installing on WordPress, I tried deleting via SFTP
– I tried both installing/uninstalling from SFTP

Our one other option is that I can remigrate the staged site all over again, since it overwrites theme, content, AND database…but as its a news site, my client has already posted several articles since we migrated over a couple nights ago. I’d have to post all of the newer articles, plus settings and theme tweaks into the staged site, then re-migrate over, which theoretically would fix everything. However, my client is not keen on this idea.

The other solution WP Engine offered was to reach out to the developers/community of this plugin to find out where all the plugin’s settings are on the phpmyadmin database itself, and delete them that way.

I did find this article with a different issue but similar application, but it didn’t quite help me specifically in what I was looking for:

Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give.
