    Default Difficulty removing missing sideboxes in admin.

    I had the wpoz module to have Wordpress onboard but when I upgraded, the module is far too broken to continue to use, so I deleted it all. Sadly, now I can't seem to get rid of the sideboxes in the admin Layout Boxes Controller.

    I have switched templates and they do not appear in the other template's admin...

    Can anyone tell me where to look to find the entry that is creating these boxes so I can get rid of them?

    Okay, I've found the entries in the DB, I've deleted them, and hopefully that's the end of that.

    There's a delete option which appears when you click on a sidebox that has the red "MISSING" text shown on it. The link only appears in those cases. And clicking it deletes the entry from the database, as you say you've done. Albeit much safer than messing with raw database data ;)

    Each of the entries were highlit in red and definitely marked "missing", so am I correct in assuming that I simply missed seeing the delete button and not some files?

    Each of the items in the list comes from the list of files on your server.
    If a file has been in the list but is no longer on the server, it will be highlighted and marked as missing, and a delete button will appear. Clicking the delete button will remove it from the database memory so that it no longer shows on the list.
