Clearing out "Awaitnig Installation" in "Add Functionality"

Permalink
Hi, I've got a development install of C5 where I check out a lot of marketplace add-ons that I try for a little while then uninstall but they remain in "Awaiting Installation." This list has gotten quite long and I'd like to clear it out. I looked at the code for the page and it seams to be connecting to the marketplace and getting the list from there. So I ask is there a way to empty or clear out this list?

Thanks
Russ

If you go to the bottom of the (Awaiting Installation) list you should find a link to the project page, go there and you can release the unwanted add-ons from the project.

If you dont find it then log into concrete5.org>> Go to 'My Account'>> Projects>> Select the project 'Name' (Not the 'URL')>> You'll find the options to 'Release From Project'.

Once you're done go back to your Dashboard and they should all be gone.

Thanks for that.. Unfortunatly my development C5 install doesn't show up under my projects. I don't think it's been there since I upgraded it to 5.5.1.

I'm not sure if you need to reconnect to the community.

Hover over 'Dashboard' and at the bottom you'll find - "Extend concrete5 – Install, update or download more themes and add-ons."

Select 'add-ons' or 'Themes' and you'll be met with the 'Connect to the community' page.

Hmmm, I just tried that.. I get sent to a login page (though I'm already logged in.)

Something screwy seams to have happened.

Yeah, I think when you go to connect to the community, it will ask you to log in even if you are already logged in.

This is just in case you wish to connect to the community using another account.

I have two Add Ons I've uninstalled and released from the project page but they still show as awaiting installation. I've tried refreshing, clearing the cache and double-checked the connection to the project page. The add ons are released and do not show on project page. Does this process take a while before the add ons are removed from the Add Functionality page or is it immediate? Any suggestions would be most welcome!

Hope

You can manually remove them from the root/packages folder via ftp. Always remember to NEVER remove packages this way if they are still installed though.

Alternatively you could install them and then immediately uninstall them being sure to check to completely remove the packages.

Thanks. I tried your second suggestion and that removed one successfully but not the other add on so I manually uninstalled.

If they show up still, after you have done the logical steps...
delete from Packages where pkgID = <package_number_goes_here>;

What? I unzipped a package manually to my packages folder. It wouldn't install, corrupt, deleted the zip and directory from my package folder, still shows up as "Waiting to be installed".
