Safely Removing Plugin

  • Hey guys!

    So you know, I like the plugin and use it on a number of sites. I have a site that is going a different route with serving files, but I cannot figure out how to safely remove the plugin? I found a page showing how to uninstall on your site (https://deliciousbrains.com/wp-offload-media/doc/uninstall/), but I don’t see some of the options here? Like the download from server button, etc.

    How can I safely uninstall this plugin, and get the files back on my site, and served from there, instead of S3?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    As long as you haven’t turned on the “Remove Files From Server” option, then you should be able to simply turn off the “Rewrite Media URLs” setting, save changes, and then test all is ok with the site now that it is using local URLs.

    If ok, you’re safe to uninstall WP Offload Media Lite, and then cleanup the database records etc. as per the guide you linked to.

    If you’ve used the “Remove Files From Server” option, then you’ll need to download you media from the bucket and put it back in your site’s uploads folder in the same path as expected by your media’s _wp_attachment_metadata and _wp_attached_file records.

    WP Offload Media has “Download all files from bucket” and “Remove all files from bucket” tools that do this for you.
