 * If you have already deactivated and deleted the plugin, but the ads are still
   appearing on your site, there are a few things you can try to find and remove
   the code.
    1. Check your theme files: Ads can sometimes be inserted directly into the theme
       files of your website. You can check these files by going to Appearance > Editor
       in your WordPress dashboard. Look through your theme files (particularly header.
       php, footer.php, and sidebar.php) for any code that looks like it might be related
       to ads. If you find any code, remove it and save the changes.
    2. Check your widgets: Ads can also be inserted into widgets on your website. Go
       to Appearance > Widgets in your WordPress dashboard and look through all of 
       the widgets that are currently active on your site. Look for any that might 
       be related to ads (such as a text widget containing ad code) and delete them.
    3. Use a plugin: There are plugins available that can help you search for and remove
       ad code from your website. One such plugin is called “AdSense Invalid Click 
       Protector,” which can be found in the WordPress plugin repository. Install and
       activate the plugin, then run a scan to search for ad code on your site. The
       plugin will then give you the option to remove the code.
 * As for your issue with reinstalling the plugin, it’s possible that there are 
   still some leftover files or folders from the previous installation. You can 
   try manually deleting these files and folders via FTP (or ask your web hosting
   provider to do this for you). Once all of the files and folders have been deleted,
   you should be able to reinstall the plugin without any issues.

 * Yes, it is possible to combine duplicate attributes for products. One approach
   is to use a standardized set of attributes that can be shared across products.
   For example, instead of having a “color” attribute for each product, you could
   use a “color” attribute that has a predefined list of options (e.g., white, grey,
   pink, etc.) that can be selected for each product.
 * To combine duplicate attributes, you can merge them into a single attribute with
   a standardized name and set of options. For example, if you have a “color” attribute
   and a “shade” attribute that both have the same options (e.g., white, grey, pink,
   etc.), you can merge them into a single “color” attribute with those options.
 * You may need to go through your existing products and update their attributes
   to match the new standardized set of attributes. This can be a time-consuming
   process, but it will help prevent errors like the one you described when adding
   new products.
 * In summary, using a standardized set of attributes and merging duplicate attributes
   can help streamline your product management process and prevent errors when adding
   new products.
