Merged How to completely uninstall Kunena

Hello

I think I have got some coding conflicts so I want to completely uninstall both Fireboard and Kunena and start again.

I also have CB installed.

I have uninstalled both Fireboard and Kunena

I have deleted all tables jos_fb_****

In CB I think I have to also uninstall the plugins

Is this correct?

CB plugins should not modify kunena tables nor installation in any way, but it may keep some config on it's own, so would not be bad idea to reinstall too...

Now, simply insall kunena again

Hi,

I accidentally installed this on an incorrect domain site and want to remove it but I can't seem to find anywhere that lets me do that. I searched the forums and looked through the documentation but didn't see anything about it unless I missed something.

I'd like to just uninstall the forum completely.

thanks.

You uninstall Kunena just like you would uninstall any other Joomla extension. If you want to know how to uninstall a Joomla extension, I recommend you ask at forum.joomla.org

If you want to completely remove Kunena (including database) is better you use the installer and upload Kunena again. Instead of "Reinstall Kunena" use the button "Remove Kunena". This removed Kunena including database and integration plugins.

Thanks for the info Rich, much appreciated. I did attempt to reinstall the component in hopes that would trigger the install process as I was looking for the very screen you posted Rich, however I got an error when I did that (db conflicts perhaps?) and so I couldn't do it that way. I will have to read up on this installer.

As for the other comment of removing it just like any other joomla extension, that is not the case if you want the db removed. I removed it the painful method of uninstalling all the plugins which doesn't remove the database tables that were added so I had to manually remove those.

If a user installs a component I'm fairly certain they will know how to uninstall a standard joomla extension, not to mention the fact they would know the link to the joomla forums, but I appreciate the response.

Rich's method is a much cleaner soluation for most and one that I certainly will use in the future should I have the need to remove this forum again.

Thanks!!

How can I completely uninstall Kunena 3.01?

G'day, Scholtz, and welcome to the forum.

You uninstall Kunena as you would normally uninstall any other Joomla component. Do you know how to uninstall Joomla extensions? If you do not know how to uninstall Joomla extensions there are many fine resources on the Internet that will explain how this is done. You use the Joomla Extension Manager feature in the backend to uninstall Kunena - any version, not just K 3.0.1.
