If you no longer need Convert Forms, you can fully remove it by uninstalling all its extensions. Since Convert Forms is not distributed as a single Joomla package, it must be uninstalled in steps.
Follow these steps to remove Convert Forms completely:
- In your Joomla Administrator, go to System → Manage → Extensions.
- Search for Convert Forms.
- Locate the System Plugin (e.g., System - Convert Forms).
- Select it and click Uninstall.
- In the same list, find the Convert Forms Component (listed as Convert Forms under the Component type).
- Select it and click Uninstall.
Uninstalling the Administrator Component will also remove the extension’s database tables. If you have existing form submissions or data you’d like to keep, it’s recommended to take a full site/database backup before uninstalling.
- Still in System → Manage → Extensions, search again for Convert Forms.
- Select any remaining plugins associated with Convert Forms (for example, integrations etc.).
- Click Uninstall to remove them
- Uninstalling only some parts (e.g., removing plugins but leaving the component) may cause frontend errors due to missing helper files. Always uninstall in the order above.
- If you run into errors after a partial uninstall, reinstall Convert Forms first, then repeat the full removal process.
Even after fully uninstalling Convert Forms, some related items may remain in your site. You may want to review and clean them up manually:
- Menu Items pointing to Convert Forms menu types (e.g., Submissions or Form).
- Modules created using the Convert Forms modules.
- Uploaded Files from forms that used the File Upload field. These files remain on your server until you remove them manually.
