Hello, I have been using Gravity Forms on our WP site for a year and a half. We switched to using a marketing automation form and I want to remove the Gravity Forms plugin. When I use the uninstall under form settings I get the White Screen Of Death. If I try and deactivate the plugin I get the WSOD. If I remove the Gravity Forms folder or rename it in the root of my WP Plugins folder using FTP I get the WSOD. I have removed all of the forms along with the submissions and tried all of these again. Always the WSOD. I restore backups each time to bring the site back. I’ve searched for just about anything I can think of and can’t find anyone having similar issues. Any ideas?

The WSOD is from a 500 Internal Server Error. That will be logged somewhere. Check the server error logs or the PHP error logs. If those are not available you can use WP\_DEBUG to show or log the error yourself.

That will help you find the cause of the WSOD
