Description: We have purchased and installed Publisher but found that we really didn’t need all of it’s functionality at this time and just want to un-install it for now. However, went I disable the extension or uninstall publisher some of our channel entries are now appearing with duplicate entries!

I’ve only noticed this with Pixel Tonic’s Assets channel entries so far…

Is there a way to completely un-install publisher - unobtrusively?

Detailed steps to reproduce the issue:
1. install pixel tonics Assets add on
2. try to un-install Publisher
3.

Un-installing should definitely remove everything. Backup your db and try to re-install Publisher, then uninstall it again. If you search for “uninstall” in the codebase you’ll see everything its trying to do, which historically has been bug free for this functionality.

I found the issue. This will be fixed in the next release (1.6.3). Sorry for the delay.

In the mean time you can run the following queries.

delete from exp_assets_selections where publisher_status == ‘draft’; delete from exp_assets_selections where publisher_lang_id != ‘1’; // Assuming 1 is your default language alter table exp_assets_selections drop column publisher_status; alter table exp_assets_selections drop column publisher_lang_id;

Backup your database first.
