 * I try to delete the plugin I get this error message:
 * > Plugin could not be deleted due to an error: Could not fully remove the plugin(
   > s) coming-soon/coming-soon.php.
 * I saw another post that talked about emptying cache from cache plugin…There was
   a whole other issue with that; I can’t seem to empty cache. So, I deleted the
   cache plugin. And, still get the error (above).
 * This was a great plugin, for when it was needed. But, I don’t need it anymore.
   Any assistance would be great.
 * Thanks.

 * Sounds like an error with you host. Deleting is a function of the server. You
   might try ftping in and manually removing it?

 * Thanks for the quick response, John!
    I should have mentioned that I did try 
   that, too…. even with Admin FTP access, I get a “you don’t have permission” error.
   I’ll contact the host to see what they can do.
 * Thanks!
