Reinstalling QCUI After an Uninstall

Reinstalling QCUI After an Uninstall is a practical QCUI 1.0.03 workflow. Follow the current Joomla path and verify the resulting administrator/frontend state rather than relying on an older impersonation method.

Procedure

  1. Install the current plg_system_qcuserimpersonation-1.0.03.zip through Joomla.
  2. Confirm the plugin is enabled automatically because this is a fresh installation after uninstall.
  3. Review the Handoff token lifetime setting.
  4. Run a clean eligible-user test and confirm launcher, handoff, banner and End impersonation behavior.

Reinstall is a fresh data lifecycle

If QCUI was fully uninstalled, its token/audit tables were dropped. Reinstall recreates them and fresh-install logic enables the plugin automatically. Historical QCUI audit rows from before uninstall do not reappear unless you separately restored them.

Maintenance boundary

Reinstalling QCUI After an Uninstall should be handled through Joomla’s extension installer/update lifecycle. The retained qcloginasuser identity, schema migrations, and uninstall SQL exist to make that lifecycle predictable; manual file/table surgery can create a state the released plugin was not designed to manage.
