Hi,

unfortunately I did a mistake in my wordpress database and as a result the plugin seems to write some data into a wrong section ☹

Each time a comment of a news article is pulled to the Wordpress installation, my Theme’s settings in the wp\_options table get corrupted.

Removing and reinstalling the plugin does not help, there are still configs of the plugin remaining after reinstall, so it does not seem to cleanup its MYSQL data when it’s removed.

I need to fresh-install the plugin to get the issue solved, how can I remove its data from the WP database?
