Hi @lejoungphally,
I’ll recommend using wp-cli. wp-cli is a tool that helps you manage your WordPress website from your terminal. It can activate/deactivate plugins and themes + it can check your website for any potential issues, create new users and so on.
I’ll urge you to check it out here:
It has documentation on how you can use it and how to install it.
Additionally, you can check DigitalOcean’s tutorial on the mater here:
It’s explained pretty good on how to use it.
For your example, you can try something like
Anyway, see if that helps.
Hello, @lejoungphally
You can easily disable the W3-Total-Cache plugin using the WP-Cli tool from the command line. We have an article that can help you get familiar with the tool which you can check here:
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-use-wp-cli-v2-to-manage-your-wordpress-site-from-the-command-line
You can navigate to the Activating and Deactivating Plugins part of the tutorial.
To list all of your plugins navigate to your WordPress install directory and execute:
To reactivate any plugin execute:
The other option will be to rename the W3-Total-Cache directory in your wp-content/plugins folder, but this can be used as a last resort option due to the fact it can mess up the database or not actually disable the plugin successfully.
Hope that this helps! Regards, Alex
