    Hello,

    First of all I would like to thank you for the excellent work on the plugin as I’ve relied on it for quite a long time and it has been rock solid.

    However, as I’m transferring my website to a private host with different web server and custom solutions for optimization/caching, I would like to completely remove it and any trace of it which can cause performance/compatibility issues. Can you give me some information on what is left where and how can I remove it after the obvious deactivate plugin -> delete plugin?

    I am sorry if this has been discussed or is documented somewhere and I thank you in advance.

    If you disable and then uninstall the plugin, it should remove all options (autoptimize_*) and filesystem assets (in wp-content/cache/autoptimize) all by itself, no additional cleaning *should* be needed 🙂

    hope this clarifies,
    frank

    Hi,

    Yep, this indeed clarifies it. I saw that the folder is still present and was wondering if there is something in the database too:

    ls -a wp-content/cache/autoptimize/
    . .. css .htaccess index.html js

    Thank you again!

    hmmm, that _should_ have been deleted, but let me check my source-code for a second … 🙂

    confirmed, there’s some files left after uninstalling, I’ll look into and possibly add this to the upcoming 2.6 release. thanks for pointing this out!

    No problem, if this are the only things left its not a big deal!
