    Hi there,

    I downloaded the maintenance mode through woodojo plugin and after turning it off and deactivating it, the website still appears in maintenance mode. I have tried deleting the .maintenance file in my host file manager however this has not worked. I also tried renaming the woodojo folder in my host file manager and this didn’t work either.

    Please help!

  • The plugin SHOULD disable automatically when it is deleted either from the wp-content/plugins folder, either from the backend or via FTP access.

    But there are at least 28 derivative plugins from the now removed original which was published as an example in a book on WordPress in Japan by an American-Japanese author, the original author’s own site is still around – he is German and appears to be pursuing other interests.

    There are also a significant number of malicious rogue so-called WordPress consultants around who leave jobs incomplete, disappears with the money, avoids answering calls/emails and holds clients to ransom, stitch up the poor sap who does not have the time to do the job right themselves.

    An person who is competent in any programming language can pick up WordPress, PHP Apache, { LAMP or MAMP or WAMP } and run with it fairly easily and write their own plugins and themes. PHP is after all a programming language interpreted/compiled and run on the fly, often optimised by being compiled on first run after any changes.

    Hi there,

    Have you found a solution? I have the same problem.

    Thanks

    Sorry for the late reply, deleting the plug in worked for me.
