Uninstall

[Kase]

How do I uninstall the vBChat? It totally messed up my forum and I want it off.

I'd like to know this too. Not for the same reason, I am moving to an IRC off server solution.

Could somebody provide the database instructions to uninstall.

-----------------------

Ok, from looking at the install file it doesn't appear to be too difficult.

In phpmyadmin (if you don't have it, I probably can't help)

Drop the 2 tables which start with vbchat_ then go into the user table structure and delete all the fields which start with vbchat_


What I've included below may work running through the vb interface but use at your own risk and backup first. (I haven't tested it at all)

ALTER TABLE `user` DROP `vbchat_pref_font_face` ,
DROP `vbchat_pref_font_color` ,
DROP `vbchat_pref_user_ignore` ,
DROP `vbchat_pref_status` ,
DROP `vbchat_pref_auto_on` ,
DROP `vbchat_pref_auto_msg` ,
DROP `vbchat_pref_in_room` ;

DROP TABLE `vbchat_datastore`

DROP TABLE `vbchat_store`

Run all those seperately but BACKUP first. I am no MySQL genius, that is just what phpmyadmin returned to me when I deleted them myself so it should work on it's own as a query. No support or responsibility will be given/taken if that mucks up your forum.

thank-you that worked
