    I tried to delete all the imported dummy data using Delete All Plugin Data in tools but that operation failed. It deleted the articles but left the categories. When I tried to delete the categories that failed too with the following error:

    Uncaught Error: Too few arguments to function ACTLOGPRO_Events::capture_deleting_term(), 2 passed in /Users/Jon/Sites/WORDPRESS lightspeed/snappy-tickets/app/public/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php on line 324 and exactly 5 expected
    in /Users/Jon/Sites/WORDPRESS lightspeed/snappy-tickets/app/public/wp-content/plugins/activity-log-pro/includes/class-alp-events.php on line 2184

    How can I delete the categories? What tables are they in?

    Hi,

    I’m sorry for the trouble you’re experiencing. Based on the error you shared, it appears that a third-party plugin is conflicting with one of our functions. The error originates from that plugin, and we were not able to reproduce the issue on our end.

    That said, deleting data in WordPress is very straightforward, similar to removing regular WordPress posts or categories.

    To delete articles:

    1. Go to All Articles.
    2. Check the top checkbox to select all articles.
    3. Choose Move to Trash from the Bulk Actions dropdown.
    4. Click Apply.

    To delete categories:

    1. Go to Categories.
    2. Check the top checkbox to select all categories.
    3. Choose Delete from the Bulk Actions dropdown.
    4. Click Apply.

      What tables are they in? wp_term_taxonomy table.

    Thank you,

    Thanks for your reply, on a Sunday too! I realise I should have read the error more closely before posting. The other plugin activity-log-pro was causing the issue. Deactivating it allowed me to delete the Categories. Thanks again.
