Hi,

I wanted to find out how can I detach and remove plugin previously added to the project?

Thanks in advance, Martin

To disable it in the CMS, in app > config > cms.disablePlugins just add "Plugin.Name" to the disablePlugins array.

To delete it from the CMS, php artisan plugin:remove Plugin.Name will do it.

You can't currently remove a plugin from a "Project" as of yet, but the feature is coming.

Thank you so much. Good to know that the feature is coming to remove plugin from a project.. Will keep things uncluttered and with only things you need to have there.

For now however removing plugin seems kinda useless if you have project attached as it will download again after the next time you press update the system.

Yeah, but if you want it cleared from your CMS views then use the above. If you just disable it rather than removing it, then it'll just stay hidden rather than keep re-downloading & appearing again. It'll still re-download, but will just stay hidden/disabled.

True, but that's not what I want at the moment and I'm in no rush to wait for the feature to come out that will allow me to properly remove plugin from the project. :)

Any updates on this?

This feature would be really useful!

yes, been annoyed so came here to check status. thanks for update.

Just being able to delete projects also would be useful

bump. Any news on this being added? I still can't get any new plugins without the ones I've removed downloading again. :(

Basically, I would not use projects just yet. They are missing bsaic functionalities ;) Simply install your plugins manually.

Is it really this difficult to remove a row from a relational table? I know you guys are doing this for free, but I invested some precious time in learning how to use your CMS and would like to see it flourish.

Disable it for now, remove it later when this feature up

Looking forward to this feature as well. Installed a bunch of plugins onto my personal site to just get used to OctoberCMS and to learn how plugins worked. I don't actually want to use most of them or bulk up my project with unnecessary files. I'll disable for now and remove them later as suggested.

That isn't, and never has been the issue. The problem (I believe) is paid plugins. When you pay for a licence for a plugin you can attach it to a single project. If unattaching plugins were allowed and easy, paid ones could simply be unattached and attached to all your other projects one at a time - giving a free copy of the plugin to every project. The devs are still thinking up an appropriate solution to this.

Hello guys, i'm out in 2024. Yesterday was release of Oсtober CMS 3 Beta. I'm hoping that will add an easy way to remove, I decided to install beta version. And today I am in despair. This no easy way still. Hold on, I know this is difficult. My bad

Nice joke))

I would go to my folder (ftp) and delete the plugins folder .. not a good advice i believe :P

This functionality has been implemented. On the project page, there is a X next to each plugin to remove it. Now waiting for the ability to remove themes from a project (http://octobercms.com/forum/post/ability-to-remove-themes-from-projects) and remove projects entirely (http://octobercms.com/forum/post/deleting-projects).

Anyone know if you can disable plugins according to the theme? I would use it because with multisite I use different themes for each domain, and each one uses its plugins
