Title: I have two ad managements and can't remove them
Post by: Jennifer P Guman on March 14, 2011, 04:51:46 PM
I had installed ad management and decided to remove it. For some reason when it was removed, the link stayed at the bottom of the page. I had wanted to try out global header/footer instead for ads, but it didn't show up, and ad management was still listed on my sidebar for admin (even though it wasn't listed anymore under packages and modifications where it has options for deleting and installing). If I click on it, though, it takes me to an error page. So I deleted global header, and ad management was still there in the sidebar and the link on the bottom.

I signed out, signed back in, reinstalled ad management (because it was STILL there, the links that didn't work), and now I have two links at the bottom of the page, and when I put ads up now, I get two...everything is duplicated. I have two ad management mods installed, even though only one is listed. Two ads show up in each spot, two links at the bottom of the page, and if I delete/uninstall it, one still remains. When I click on ad management after removing the mod (because it still remains on the sidebar) I get an error page, so in order to use an ad mod, I have to have it in twice, and everything show up twice, two credit links at the bottom, etc.

the two 468 ads are still on top (even though I only add it in once, everything is duplicated)

Is there any way to fix this?

Hi,

you are best to ask for help in the ad management support thread, sounds like you end up doing a manual uninstall to get rid of the leftovers.

Ok, thanks, I'll work on doing a manual install of all those extra links.

hey Jennifer

I wish I saw your thread earlier. I uninstalled the mod, even changed the themes...and it's still there in my permissions menu. Do you have any idea how to manual get rid of this junk?
