I have moodle 2.6 installed.  I accidentally tried to install one of the poodll add-ons for 2.5 and moodle has locked up.  I cannot access anything else.  I have tried to install other parts of poodll but to no avail.  I cannot return to the main menu - anywhere.  Just stuck here...I think it is raining cats and dogs...cuz I just stepped in a poodll sad

Hi Tom, did you install it using Moodle's auto install feature, or did you upload it from the zip files? And what add-on was it?

The problem is likely because all the PoodLL plugins depend on the PoodLL Filter. So it is listed as a dependancy. If it is not installed, you can get stuck in limbo, or a pickle or a big poo. Try installing the PoodLL filter and see what happens. Failing that, you might just grit your teeth and delete the plugin in you just installed manually.

Wow! Just go into the control panel and delete the folder...duh!  It seems to work but if it is not that simple, please let me know.
