ListIt shows as installed, even after deleted

Post by cpansewicz »

Hi,

This issue is with ListIt v1.4.1 on CMS v2.1.1.

I had installed ListIt, but decided it wouldn't work for my needs, so I uninstalled the module. The module still shows up as installed in my System Information, Installed Modules section, but not in the Module Manager.

Also, when I look in the site directory, there is not a ListIt directory in the Modules directory. What do I need to do to completely remove this?

Thanks.

Renaming a module directory does not in any way trigger the system to remove the database record about what modules are installed.

So if you did not click on the uninstall button in ModuleManager for that module, OR it failed in some way, then System information will still list the module as installed.
