Best way would be to find the mod installations for these and then unistall them following the install code backward.....

If you need a hand with it let me know...

:mrgreen:

How would I locate them? Any idea which files they are coded into? (other than the files relating to the said modules) Don't worry if you don't know off hand, it will make an interesting project for me to keep myself occupied :)

If your going to do this make sure you back up your database and the deleted files/directory first as a precaution

Chatspot seemed very easy to remove, just deleted:

languages/lang_xxx/lang_chatspot.php

/chatspot_front.php
/chatbox.php (not entirely sure of the name but you can't miss it! <img>)

/blocks/block_imp_chat.php
/blocks/language/lang_xxx/lang_chat_block.php

and delete the chatspot directory

then remove the three chatspot tables from the database (they're called: phpbb_chatspot_messages, phpbb_chatspot_rooms, and phpbb_chatspot_sessions)

no problem :lol: but I'll have a go)

The basic drift is, pretty much all the files with "stats" or "stat" in their name and the modules and stats_module directories need deleting. And from the database, all the stats and modules tables. (I'll update this with all the details later in case someone else wants to do this.)

My only problem now is that the category in the ACP hasn't gone and it still has "edit modules" as an option too! I've tried clearing the cache's, clearing my browser cache, optimising the database etc etc and it still won't go! I'm completely baffled! (before you say it, yes I deleted all the stats modules from the admin directories!)

Anyway, with the stats module gone the forums seem faster and take less time to generate! :D

I don't know squat about this but learning alot.

Someone smarter than I can help with this, but my suggestion would be:

Did you remove the stat_***.tpl files from your template/admin folder.
I believe this is where the ACP index is located.

Don't take my word for it tho. LOL

Before attempting either of the following make sure you backup your database and files first!

Remove chatspot

Delete these files:

chatbox_front.php
chatspot_front.php
/blocks/chat.php
/blocks/language/lang_english/lang_chat_box.php
/language/lang_english/lang_chatbox.php
/language/lang_english/lang_chatspot.php
/templates/template_name/blocks/chat_block.tmp

Delete directory: /chatspot/

then from the database delete these tables:

phpbb_chatspot_messages
phpbb_chatspot_rooms
phpbb_chatspot_sessions

That has chatspot removed completely!


Remove Statistics

Delete these files:

/statistics.php
/admin/admin_statistics.php
/admin/admin_stats_config.php
/admin/admin_stats_lang.php
/admin/admin_mod_package.php
/admin/modules/admin_statistics.php
/admin/modules/admin_stats_config.php
/admin/modules/admin_stats_lang.php
/admin/modules/admin_mod_package.php
/blocks/blocks_imp_statistics.php
/blocks/language/lang_english/lang_statistics_block.php
/includes/kb_stats.php
/language/lang_english/lang_admin_statistics.php
/language/lang_english/lang_statistics.php
/pafiledb/modules/pa_stats.php <----- be careful you will loose some download functionality
/templates/template_name/kb_stats_body.tpl
/templates/template_name/pa_stats_body.tpl
/templates/template_name/statistics.tpl
/templates/template_name/blocks/statistics_block.tpl
/templates/template_name/admin/stat_admin_lang.tpl
/templates/template_name/admin/stat_config_body.tpl
/templates/template_name/admin/stat_edit_lang.tpl
/templates/template_name/admin/stat_edit_module.tpl
/templates/template_name/admin/stat_import_language.tpl
/templates/template_name/admin/stat_make_pak.tpl
/templates/template_name/admin/stat_manage_body.tpl
/templates/template_name/admin/stat_select_module.tpl

Delete directory: /stats_mod/
Delete directory: /modules/
Delete directory: /pafiledb/images/stats/
Delete directory: /templates/template_name/stats_mod/

then from the database delete these tables:

phpbb_stats_config
phpbb_stats_smilies_index
phpbb_stats_smilies_info
phpbb_module_admin_panel
phpbb_module_cache
phpbb_module_group_auth
phpbb_module_info
phpbb_modules


that should be it :)

LOL - I feel the same way some times.

Make some changes, clear the caches and nothing changed. Come back an hour or so later and pufffff, it's gone. LOL

Found it takes a little time for things to take affect.

In your case tho, probably something inside another file. Only the brains have the answer to that.

Hi

Just so you know...

Code: Select all
pafiledb
is for the download mod so if you remove anything related to that you will loose your functionality of your downloads...

Still got that stats block on the ACP, checked everything I can think of (chmod, other stats related files, tpl files, cleared the cache's many times!), still not gone! Very strange! I shall keep looking but im out of idea's!
