If you've added a plugin to your Wix site and it's no longer needed, you can remove it directly from the editor using the plugins panel. There's no need to dig through the App Market or your dashboard settings. Here's the quickest way to find it and take it off your site.
Method 1: Removing a Plugin via the Plugins Panel
Step 1: Open the Editor and Navigate to the Page
Open your site in the Wix Editor.
Navigate to the specific page where the plugin is shown.
Step 2: Open the Plugins Panel
Click on the page and then plugin icon in the left hand sidebar.
Step 3: Search for the Plugin
In the Installed Plugins section, search bar for the plugin you want to delete.
Click the three dot icon next to the plugin.
Click Delete or Remove, depending on which option is shown for that plugin.
Click Remove Plugin.
In the confirmation pop-up, confirm the removal by clicking on the Remove button.
Step 4: Publish your site
Publish your site to save the change. Until you publish, the plugin may still appear active on the live site.
Method 2: Removing a Plugin Directly from the Page
If the plugin is visible on the page, you don't have to go through the plugins panel at all. You can select it directly and delete it from there.
Open your site in the Wix Editor.
Navigate to the specific page where the plugin is shown.
Click directly on the plugin element on the page to select it. If it's hidden behind another element, right click and choose Overlapping Items to find it.
Once selected, either:
Press Delete on your keyboard, or
Right click the plugin and choose Delete from the menu.
Publish your site to save the change.
Conclusion
Removing a plugin from Wix takes just a few clicks, whether you go through the plugins panel or select the plugin directly on the page. Just remember that the removal only takes effect once you publish your site.
