Uninstall issue [Fix provided]

  • Within the uninstall.php file, replace the wpbitly_uninstall() with the following code:

    To the plugin author: please add this fix. I cannot see a public repository for me to contribute. Thank you.

    /**
 *
 * @return void
 */
function wpbitly_uninstall() {
    // Delete associated options
    if (defined('WPBITLY_OPTIONS') && constant('WPBITLY_OPTIONS')) {
        delete_option(constant('WPBITLY_OPTIONS'));
    }

    if (defined('WPBITLY_AUTHORIZED') && constant('WPBITLY_AUTHORIZED')) {
        delete_option(constant('WPBITLY_AUTHORIZED'));
    }

    // Grab all posts with an attached shortlink
    $posts = get_posts('numberposts=-1&post_type=any&meta_key=_wpbitly');

    // And remove our meta information from them
    foreach ($posts as $post){
        delete_post_meta($post->ID, '_wpbitly');
    }

}
wpbitly_uninstall();

    You can then proceed to uninstall safely.

    Kind regards,
    Michael

    Thank you Michael!

    With the above I was finally able to get rid of this cr*p plugin that never worked.

    Glad it worked for you!

    It’s difficult when you want to uninstall the plugin but unable to do so due to a fatal error in the uninstallation hook.

    Hope this helps more people until the fix is made. It seems the plugin support has not been updating for a while now.
