If you want to disable an extension or ThemeWare®, for example because you have mistakenly installed an incompatible version and the administration is not accessible, you have to disable this extension via the database.

Important: In the Shopware 6 Cloud currently is no possibility to reach the configuration via the database.

Manual approach (for experienced users)

Tip: For a quick access to the database we gladly use the extension Adminer for the Admin from Friends of Shopware. If the administration is not accessible, we recommend using Adminer or phpMyAdmin.

Deactivate extension

1. Open the database (e.g. Adminer or phpMyAdmin)

2. Use the search field to find the table "plugin" (1)

3. Open the table

4. Edit the entry for the desired extension (e.g. "TcinnThemeWareModern") with "edit" (3)

5. Change the contents of the "active" column (4) from 1 to 0

6. Save this change and exit the database

You have now disabled the extension from the database.
