Awstats disabled causing "There are no statistics for the domain yet" but the awstats folder remains (35MB in size)

[wdc]

When I have disabled awstats in DA -> "Site Summary / Statistics / Logs" -> "EDIT ACCOUNT CONFIGURATION",

despite that, the File manager EVO 1.665 still shows awstats folder with all its data. I would bet that the awstats are disabled in many times due to its high disk usage, so the user may expect the data be deleted after disabling or have option to delete during disabling.

I've read your feature request and encountered this additional text in it:

Btw. awstats should be disabled by default, it is often using too much disk space.

Lots of people like the stats. If you want to have it disabled by default, you can choose to do that yourself.

da build set awstats no
da build set webalizer no

You can also just set these two in the directadmin.conf file:
awstats=0
webalizer=0

And restart directadmin.

As for the option to delete leftovers when a user disables it, that's a good point.
