ArticleBot won't go away...

[LanciaStratos]

I uninstalled the ArticleBot modification that was posted here a few months ago, and now I just can't seem to get rid of it. I removed the product from the product and plugin from the appropriate places in the Admin CP, but the additional menu it added to the CP's left hand column will not go away. It doesn't have the phrases, so it's left showing the "phrases" (*[articlebot_admin_name]*) of what should be there. How can I get rid of this?

in your include/xml directory on your server look for a file called cpnav_articlebot.xml (or similar) and delete it.

That got it, thank you so much!

This worked for me as well. However, you may also want to remove the following files as the uninstall didn't do this automatically.

admincp/articlebot_admin.php
admincp/articlebot_simulator.php
articlebot/ (the entire folder)
includes/cron/articlebot_vbcron.php
includes/xml/cpnav_articlebot.xml (already mentioned)

Thank you so much, Mark, it was great to clean out that extra space.

Phew. Thanks peterska2 and markblair. I tried this mod on 3.8.2 and when i upgraded to vB 4.0 it wouldnt be deleted. I recieved Database error mails all the time.

Your solution did the trick! Even 3-4 years later
