If you get this error, you have to rename the plugin's folder "ipbwi" on your FTP to something else like "ipbwi_deactivated" to get the plugin deactivated in WordPress without need to access the WordPress Admin Panel. After that, you have to check the config table in your database, e.g. with PHPmyAdmin for the ipbwi_ prefixed settings field for the board path. Delete the Content Value of the field or change to the correct forum path.

This error occurs only if you have not typed in the correct forum path and IPBWI for WordPress tries to access it.

I strongly recommend setting up a test environment for plugin tryouts to avoid downtimes through installation failures.

are you sure you've deleted all files from IPBWI for WordPress? IPBWI for WordPress actually IS easy to deinstall.
