Removing a CodeRush Community plugin - devexpress

In this question - Deploying a CodeRush plugin from the Community Site - I asked about deploying a CodeRush plugin from the Community Site.
I deployed the plugin, and created a key binding.
I've had some inspiration, and want to create a similar plugin with a different name, and a different key-binding, but I now want to remove this plugin.
What steps do I need to take to remove it ?

From the DevExpress menu, select "About...".
Shift+Click the "Plug-ins..." button. This opens the Community plug-in folder and the CodeRush plug-in folder. Shift+Clicking the button saves you a step and closes the About box for you.
Find the plug-in you want to remove and delete it (or move it to another location). If the plug-in is locked you will need to close down any instances of VS that have loaded the plug-in and then try again.

I can't create new project in WordPress

I am new to WordPress. And I can not find the project section from where I can manage multiple projects. But currently, I am just stuck with this project and can not create other projects simultaneously. And there is a difference in the dashboard of others on the internet.
My WordPress Dashboard
support help (internet source)
Other's WordPress dashboard
From what I can see, just the dashboard you want is being modified by some plugin. This means that you currently have a clean version of wordpress, without any plugins, and the dashboard you want is the result of installing some plugin. In this case it is a WP Data Access plugin. I think after you install this plugin you will get what you want :)

Getting started with Redux in WordPress

I apologize if this has been asked before, but after doing some research, I could not find any resources answering this specific question of mine.
I'm trying to use the Redux framework in my WordPress theme. I used the builder to get started, which is linked to on the plugin page. I customized my framework there and chose the option of "embed only" (Embed Only: TGM is not used and Redux is embedded within the theme/plugin). I also exported as a custom theme, which uses Underscores. As a result, I now have admin directory inside of my theme, with an "options-init.php" file in it. I've been modifying this file to add my options. Is this right? In the documentation it mentions to look for a sample-config.php file, and to copy that and modify it, but I can't find that anywhere. I want to make sure I'm doing this right before I get too far and find an issue.
Also, how do I make sure the framework stays up to date with the latest security patches? Is it a better idea to install it as a plugin rather than embed it in the theme itself?
Lead dev of Redux Framework here. It is very much a better idea to run Redux via a plugin if you want your users to have security updates.
Another option is to embed redux, but to use TGM to suggest for users to install the plugin. This way your theme is not dependent on Redux, but the moment they install the plugin, that version of Redux will take over.
It's up to you, but the plugin is the way to go.

Export and import Visual Composer design across sites

I've designed a site at my own domain and I now want to implement the same design on a clients domain.
All is done in Visual Composer and the clients site have the exact same conditions and plugins for a migration to work, but I can't seam to find a "export Visual Composer design" option anywhere on the web!
The hard way to do it is to have two windows open and manually create the same design by going element to element, tab to tab, which really isn't an option...
The Templatera plugin only seam to work on the same domain.
Does anyone have a better solution?
I have discovered an easiest way.
This is just change the layout to text. or deactivate the visual composer plugins. then it will show only a written code on each page.
Just copy the codes in the page from where you want to copy and paste the code to other domain's page where you want to put.
Then reactivate the visual composer plugins in both site.
Building on Ali Hayder Shawon answer, here's a simple solution that does not require to deactivate the plugin:
Click on the "Classic mode" button in the source editor (screenshot below).
Select all text in the text editor (screenshot below).
Paste it in the destination editor, making sure that it is too in classic mode.
Screenshot for step 1:
Screenshot for step 2:
You need save your design to to My Templates (Saved Templates), then you can export and import to client site. I know a free plugin can do it, try search "VC Templates Import & Export".

Can we lost any settings if we update plugin by single click?

I have a wordpress website. It will ask to update plugin again and again. So if i do these plugin update by clicking on update button, will any settings of plugin be lost ?
Whether plugin will get lost all previous setting or not, it is totally dependent on plugin logic.
E.g. I can develop a WordPress plugin which if somebody installs and updates later, can erase all previous setting. I can write a logic like that. So you can simply ask the same question to plugin developer as they can give you perfect answer.

How to delete all plugin references in database?

How does one completely remove a plugin from WordPress?
I have deleted the plugin via WordPress admin and then reinstalled, problem persists.
I see 8 records in cmsoptions table referencing the offending plugin. Since WP Admin drags to a grinding crawl with the plugin active, and for weeks the plugin was working just fine, I have to conclude that the problem exists due to the plugin references in the DB.
If anyone has the inside word on completely obliterating a plugin from WP, please do share.
The the options API (http://codex.wordpress.org/Options_API) is open to the plugin to store whatever data it wishes (under whatever name it wishes). You'd have to search the plugin code to see what it is storing (and how) in order to get rid of the offending data.
The issue isn't with WordPress, it's with the plugin. WordPress is a framework and can't take responsibility for whatever gets built on top of it (ie plugins). It's like blaming a hammer for a poorly built house.
