# WP Super Cache error even though not installed

 * I tested out the WP Super Cache plugin a while back. I uninstalled it and deleted
   the plugin folder, but I’m still getting a WP Super Cache error showing up in
   my HTML code when I view source.
 * The error says:
    <!– WP Super Cache is installed but broken. The constant WPCACHEHOME
   must be set in the file wp-config.php and point at the WP Super Cache plugin 
   directory. –>
 * It comes right after the closing </html> tag.
 * I’d like to get rid of this and to be sure the plugin is really gone.
 * I’ve tried reinstalling/uninstalling, but the error persists.

 * Hi there!
 * It sounds like you may have some settings still lingering. Could you try following
   the steps [here](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-super-cache/other_notes/#How-to-uninstall-WP-Super-Cache)
   to completely uninstall WP Super Cache? Then, see if the issue persists.
 * Please let me know if that does the trick!

 * The problem seems to have been the WP Super Cache additions to my wp-config.php
 * Thanks for the help!
