View source for Disabling a plugin

In case a plugin is causing an error that prevents you from accessing your Geeklog site (e.g. after a failed plugin install), here's what you can do to disable the plugin manually:

# Open your database in phpMyAdmin (or a similar tool - even the <tt>mysql</tt> command line shell will do if you have nothing else).
# Find the plugins table, usually called <tt>gl_plugins</tt>.
# In that table, find the entry for the plugin that you want to disable.
# Change the value of the field <tt>pi_enabled</tt> to 0 (zero).

Here's the SQL request to do this for a plugin named ''foo'':

<pre>UPDATE gl_plugins SET pi_enabled = 0 WHERE pi_name = 'foo';</pre>

You should now be able to access your site again.
