Deactivating and Uninstalling

You can deactivate Greg's Threaded Comment Numbering plugin via the plugins administration page, and your preferences will be saved for the next time you enable it.

However, if you would like to remove the plugin completely, just disable it via the plugins administration page, then select it from the list of recently deactivated plugins and choose "Delete" from the admin menu. This will not only delete the plugin, but it will also run a special routine included with the plugin which will completely remove its preferences from the database.

Known Issues

The version of the Intense Debate plugin which is current as of this writing overrides themes' existing comment code, rendering it incompatible with any theme or plugin designed to use the full capabilities of the new wp_list_comments introduced in WordPress 2.7. This means that regardless of what changes you make to your theme's comment code (such as calling this plugin), those changes won't show up while your comments are being controlled by Intense Debate.
