I have a website that has a plugin named wp-cache now wp-cache has known security issues so I decided to delete it.
After disabling and deleting using wordpress admin interface, the screen just went white and the website is not working anymore.
I tried deleting using FTP, and renaming, all with the same result.
I also tried following the steps to fix "white screen of death" but it didn't help. (https://thethemefoundry.com/blog/wordpress-white-screen-of-death/ and http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/common-wordpress-errors-with-solutions/)
Is this a known bug with wp-cache plugin? How to solve this issue with wordpress?
UPDATE: I found this on their README.txt
= I removed WP-Cache and now Wordpress does not work =
This occurs because Wordpress still try to run
advanced-cache.php. Remove the following line to you wp-config.php` file:define('WP_CACHE', true);
I followed their instruction by commenting out the code define('WP_CACHE', true), now wp-admin is working fine but the website is still showing white page.
UPDATE: Ahh, it's all working now. The answer on their readme file solved the problem. The problem that came up after it's fixed is because of the other plugins; it has all been disabled because I followed the solution to fix white screen earlier. I enabled the needed plugins and now it is working.
Hope this helps someone in the future.
