== Description ==
|
|
|
|
Plugin Reference Cleaner adds a convenient "Remove Reference" button to plugin deactivation error notices in WordPress. This tool helps administrators clean up invalid plugin entries that can occur when plugins are improperly removed from the server.
|
|
|
|
When WordPress detects a plugin file that no longer exists but is still referenced in the database as active, it displays an error notice. This plugin enhances those notices with a button that allows you to safely remove the invalid reference with a single click.
|
|
|
|
Note: This plugin only needs to be installed and active if you have an error notification showing at /wp-admin/plugins.php, like this:
|
|
"The plugin folder-name/file-name.php has been deactivated due to an error: Plugin file does not exist."
|
|
|
