 * Hi,
 * I used the plugin but after deactiviting it a few days ago it still shows when
   navigating to my homepage: [http://www.skiesandscopes.com](http://www.skiesandscopes.com)
 * I’ve tried uninstalling the plugin completely but that doesn’t help. I’ve also
   tried clearing the cache and also uninstalling the ‘Wp Fastest Cache’ plugin 
   but I still can’t get rid of the maintenance mode.
 * I did add an SSL certificate to my site whilst the maintenance plugin was active
   so not sure if that might have affected things.
 * Can you help?
 * Thanks

 * Hello [@skiesandscopes17](https://wordpress.org/support/users/skiesandscopes17/),
 * This kind of issues usually appear because of cache plugins. Try to delete (via
   FTP) all content from /wp-content/cache/, maybe something went wrong when you
   tried to clear the cache or to uninstall the cache plugin.
 * Thanks.
 * Later edit: as I see… you also use Cloudflare. If their cache feature is activated,
   you should clear that too.
