 * Hi there,
 * I installed this plugin and add some codes but one of the code I added is not
   a proper code.
    So, the website is broken and occurs a big errors.
 * So, I uninstalled(deleted) the plugin in FTP directly.
    and, I re-installed the
   plugin again. But when I re-activated the plugin, the same big error happened.
   and I cannot re-activate the plugin.
 * How can I re-install and re-activate the plugin in this case?
 * Hope your reply soon.
 * Best

 * how?
    i had a function with a bad line – it gave fatal error and now i cant get
   the code snippets plugin to activate again. ive completely deleted it, cleared
   all caches, etc, but when i activate the sme function causes an error – but i
   havent even added any functions to the plugin ! i dont think the uninstall is
   really deleting all the plugin data.

 * This plugin adds code to the database directly.
    So, please log in to your database
   and you have to delete your entry(name of your snippets) of code snippets.
 * and then, you can re-activate correctly.

 * There’s definitely something wrong with the uninstall process. All the data is
   not being deleted.

 * yes, the database data does not uninstall. so you have to delete the entry of
   your database of code snippets.

 * Yeh that wasn’t working do me but I realised I have to wipe my object cache (
   redis / memcached)
