Elasticsuite: Uninstall?

[shamoon]

Sadly I've had to uninstall this module for the moment (for reasons out of my control), once I've disabled the module and I go to edit a category the page throws:

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class 'Smile\ElasticsuiteVirtualCategory\Model\Category\Attribute\Backend\VirtualRule' not found in /public_html/vendor/magento/framework/ObjectManager/Factory/AbstractFactory.php:93 Stack trace: #0 /public_html/vendor/magento/framework/ObjectManager/Factory/Compiled.php(88): Magento\Framework\ObjectManager\Factory\AbstractFactory->createObject('Smile\\Elasticsu...', Array) #1 /public_html/vendor/magento/framework/ObjectManager/ObjectManager.php(57): Magento\Framework\ObjectManager\Factory\Compiled->create('Smile\\Elasticsu...', Array) #2 /public_html/vendor/magento/framework/Validator/UniversalFactory.php(36): Magento\Framework\ObjectManager\ObjectManager->create('Smile\\Elasticsu...', Array) #3 /public_html/vendor/magento/module-eav/Model/Entity/Attribute/AbstractAt in /public_html/vendor/magento/framework/ObjectManager/Factory/AbstractFactory.php on line 93

This is after disabling the module, etc. Is there something I'm missing?
Thanks!

Hello @nikonratm ,

you will have to delete the attributes the module adds to the categories.

Especially the virtual_rule one which has a custom backend model that can lead to your issue when ElasticSuite is removed.

Try this query to remove it : DELETE FROM eav_attribute where attribute_code='virtual_rule'. This should do the trick for you.

EDIT: flushing Mag cache after doing this fixed it, thanks!
