• Im able to access my dashboard – but get a database error when trying to manage my plugins – after talking with engineering at hosting, I believe we narrowed it to a plugin which needs to be deleted.

    Question 1: I need to know if there is there a MySQL command to deactivate or disable plugins?

    Question:2: Can I delete plugins one by one in my wp-content/plugin folder via FTP and have them stop running? rather than deactivating?

  • 1) The command to disable all plugins are:
    UPDATE wp_options SET option_value = '' WHERE option_name = 'active_plugins';

    This same type of code will work to deactivate a certain plugin but you at least have to know the name of what the plugin is called in the database.

    2) It would be best to deactivate the plugin and delete it from the wordpress dashboard, but if you remove the plugin ftp then it will also deactivate the plugin due to the fact the files are no longer there.
