Background of the issue:
I would like to completely remove WPML so I can start again on a website that I'm rebuilding. The previous translation was done badly, mostly using strings. The site I need help with is hidden link.

Symptoms:
I can't find any documentation on how to completely remove WPML. I've also submitted this before but cannot see it anymore.

Questions:
How do I completely remove WPML so I can get started again?

Hi there.

We already have an open ticket for this issue here:

https://wpml.org/forums/topic/i-would-like-to-completely-remove-wpml-so-i-can-start-again-but-properly-this-time/

This is considered a duplicate ticket.

Please do not open more tickets for the same issue, as this will only load the ticket queue and will move your initial tickets lower in the queue priority.

Let's continue the conversation in the ticket that was initially created.

Can you also please mark this current ticket as resolved?

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
