Vous devez désactiver toutes les extensions WordPress, mais vous ne pouvez pas accéder à la zone d’administration de WordPress ?
Lors d’un dépannage WordPress, il vous sera souvent conseillé de désactiver toutes les extensions puis de les réactiver une à une. Mais que faire si vous ne pouvez pas accéder à wp-admin pour les désactiver ?
Dans cet article, nous allons vous afficher comment désactiver facilement toutes les extensions WordPress lorsque vous ne pouvez pas accéder à la zone wp-admin.
Tutoriel vidéo
Si vous préférez les instructions écrites ou si vous voulez avancer à votre propre rythme, continuez à lire les instructions ci-dessous.
Il existe deux méthodes couramment utilisées pour désactiver des extensions sans accéder à la zone d’administration de votre site WordPress. Vous pouvez choisir la méthode qui vous semble la plus facile :
Méthode 1 : Désactiver toutes les extensions WordPress par FTP
Pour cette méthode, vous devrez utiliser soit un client FTP, soit l’application de gestion de fichiers dans le panneau de contrôle de votre hébergeur WordPress.
Si vous n’avez jamais utilisé le protocole FTP, vous pouvez consulter notre guide sur l’utilisation du protocole FTP pour téléverser des fichiers sur WordPress.
Tout d’abord, vous devez vous connecter à votre site à l’aide d’un client FTP ou du gestionnaire de fichiers de cPanel. Une fois connecté, vous devez naviguer jusqu’au dossier /wp-content/.
Dans le dossier wp-content
, vous trouverez un dossier appelé plugins
. C’est là que WordPress stocke toutes les extensions installées sur votre site.
Vous devez cliquer avec le bouton droit de la souris sur le dossier des extensions
et sélectionner « Renommer ».
Ensuite, changez le nom du dossier en ce que vous voulez. Dans notre exemple, nous l’appellerons plugins.deactivated.
Une fois cette opération effectuée, toutes vos extensions seront désactivées.
En effet, WordPress recherche un dossier appelé « plugins » pour charger les fichiers d’extension. Lorsqu’il ne trouve pas ce dossier, il désactive automatiquement les extensions activées dans la base de données.
En général, cette méthode est utilisée lorsque vous êtes bloqué dans votre zone d’administration. Si le problème est lié à vos extensions, vous devriez pouvoir vous connecter à la zone d’administration de WordPress.
Si vous visitez la page Plugins » Installed Plugins à l’intérieur de la zone d’administration de WordPress, vous verrez des notifications pour toutes les extensions qui ont été désactivées.
Vous remarquerez également que toutes vos extensions ont disparu. Ne vous inquiétez pas, ils sont tous en sécurité et vous pouvez facilement les restaurer.
Revenez simplement à votre client FTP et allez dans le dossier /wp-content/
. À partir de là, vous devez renommer le dossier plugins.deactivated
en plugins
.
Vous pouvez maintenant retourner à la page « Plugins » « Installed Plugins » dans la zone d’administration de WordPress et activer une extension à la fois jusqu’à ce que votre site s’arrête à nouveau.
À ce stade, vous saurez exactement quelle extension est à l’origine du problème. Vous pouvez alors supprimer le dossier de cette extension de votre site à l’aide du FTP ou demander le support de l’auteur/autrice de l’extension.
Méthode 2 : Désactiver toutes les extensions à l’aide de phpMyAdmin
La méthode FTP est certainement plus facile, à notre avis. Cependant, vous pouvez également désactiver toutes les extensions WordPress à l’aide de phpMyAdmin.
Important : Avant toute chose, veuillez effectuer une sauvegarde complète de la base de données. Cela vous sera utile en cas de problème.
Ensuite, vous devez vous connecter au tableau de bord de votre hébergeur. Dans cet exemple, nous vous affichons un tableau de bord cPanel. Le tableau de bord de votre hébergeur peut être différent.
Vous devez cliquer sur l’icône « phpMyAdmin » sous la section Bases de données.
Ceci lancera phpMyAdmin dans une nouvelle fenêtre du navigateur.
Vous devrez sélectionner votre base de données WordPress si elle ne l’est pas déjà. Après cela, vous pourrez voir les tables de la base de données WordPress.
Comme vous pouvez le voir, toutes les tables de la base de données ont le préfixe wp_
avant le nom de la table. Vos tables peuvent avoir un préfixe de base de données différent.
Vous devez cliquer sur le tableau wp_options
. À l’intérieur du tableau wp_options
, vous verrez des lignes de différentes options. Trouvez l’option ‘active_plugins’ et cliquez sur le lien ‘Modifier’ à côté.
Dans l’écran suivant, vous devrez modifier le champ option_value
en a:0:{}
.
Cliquez ensuite sur le bouton « Go » pour enregistrer vos modifications.
Vous avez bien désactivé toutes les extensions WordPress en utilisant phpMyAdmin. Si une extension vous empêchait d’accéder à l’administration de WordPress, vous devriez pouvoir vous connecter maintenant.

I tried to deactivate my plugins using the FTP process on Wordpress version 6.3, and the website crashed.
I was able to rename the plugins file and restart it okay. Just letting you know.

I have changed the file name in FTP as suggested and am able to log into the Wordpress admin, but as soon as I change the file name back to the original, the error comes back. Which means I am not able to deactivate / reactivate plugins one at a time.
Can you help?
WPBeginner Support
In that case, you would want to use the second method from the article and that should force the plugins to deactivate.

Thanks a lot for the information. I had activated Google reCaptcha v3 in Ultimate Member and was not able to login to the wp-admin using super admin details. I just renamed the directory recaptcha under directory plugin from FTP and the trick worked, it allowed me to login and disable Google reCaptcha v.3 from dashboard. Thanks a ton.

Thank you for this post and all the options. I did the PHPmyadmin one before but this time I just renamed the plugin file in cpanel. So much easier and faster and it triggered a « database repair » notice. I did that and found that my Options table had crashed. I renamed the plugins file back to the original and ran the repair database again and it worked fine!

I had a problem with my Jetpack plugin after I upgraded my PHP and WP. It would not let me deactivate or delete it. I went in the WP plugin folder and renamed the Jetpack plugin folder. Refreshed the plugin admin page in WP and Bob’s your uncle! I deleted the plugin through the admin panel and removed the folder from the root.

I want to install the Yoast SEO plugin in wordpress. After I do that I need to Deactivate the plugin currently used, correct? I am new to working with Wordpress and I need to do this on my own since the guy that made my website abandoned helping me any further! Any Help would be so Much appreciated! Thanks!
WPBeginner Support
You would only need to remove your other plugin if it is an SEO plugin. If it is then you would want to remove it to prevent some common issues.

Thanks a lot – this is a site saver!
Quick question: after the plugin folder is renamed, when go back in the wordpress WP – admin back office plugins list, is it safe to delete such plugin (which folder has been renamed), or will this action be harmful?
Many thanks!
Mig
WPBeginner Support
Using the delete method inside your WordPress site would be the best method for removing that plugin permanently as it will go through the uninstall steps of the plugin.

Hello,
My Word Press site displays normally to visitors but I am getting the WSoD on the WP-Admin login page.
I have tried increasing WordPress Memory to 512Mb and I have tried disabling all plugins. Neither seem to have helped.
I checked and the site was still loading normally but with all the plugins clearly not running. But I get the WSoD when I try to login as admin
I re-activated plugins and everything went back to normal for visitors.
Have you any suggestions what to try next?
