    Since I did not find anything with the search, I would have the following question: How can I uninstall TinyMCE Advanced complete with possibly all database entries?

    Many thanks

    This plugin includes an uninstall.php file that does DB cleanup automatically on uninstalling. See: https://plugins.svn.ww.wp.xz.cn/tinymce-advanced/trunk/uninstall.php. Looking at it now, it may need some updating. Will do in the next version.

    Edit: No need of update. Running the uninstall.php file properly cleans up all settings from the DB.

    Does that mean I have to call up the following in the browser?:

    https://domain.de/wp-content/plugins/tinymce-advanced/uninstall.php

    Can I see the success?

    Thank you very much!

    No. This file is loaded automatically by WordPress when you click on “Uninstall” under the plugin name.

    Can I see the success?

    No. There is no output expected from uninstall.php. It runs just before the plugin’s files are deleted from the server.

    In WordPress it may make sense to add something to the “success” message that is shown after a plugin was uninstalled. Not sure if that would be very beneficial, but probably a “nice to have”. Perhaps open an “enhancement” ticket for WP core, so it can be discussed more 🙂
