I had a Legacy site and migrated to the new Symbiostock 3.0. I did this all on the same server and now want to remove all traces from the Symbiostock Legacy.
To be honest I am lost with all the files on the server and just can’t find out which files and folders I can safely remove. So I want to remove Legacy and keep all Symbiostock 3.0 files and folders. Would be nice to clean up the database as well.
Is there documentation somewhere to help me to figure this out.
Thanks!
Hey Jan – unfortunately there is no documentation on this as legacy has been out of development for many years now.
Once you disable the theme/plugin for legacy and delete it, you might have to hunt for the media files that remain to clear them up. Symbiostock Pro creates a few directories in your system the main one which is ss_media.
As for the database, that’s something we can’t quite advise on right now because any mistakes in that regard can break your site.
I suppose these are the new symbiostock files:
wp-content/uploads/ss_media
wp-content/uploads/_ssdl
wp-content/uploads/ss_lic
wp-content/uploads/ss_l_media
wp-content/uploads/symbiostock_rf_contentThese are the Legacy which can be deleted, all found in the root:
plr_data_files
symbiostock_ipn
symbiostock_network
symbiostock_rf
symbiostock_xml_cacheRobin can you confirm the folders listed by Jan are correct, and ok to remove? I would like to do a clean out as well.

I am absolutely not sure about the files that can be deleted. Please don’t take my word. It would be nice if Robin could confirm this.
