I cannot use this module because it requires PHP SOAP. I disabled the module, but for whatever reason, I cannot delete the content type created by this module called "opportunity_contact_role".

I believe that the content type is created using a Features-like system, which may be why, since it is defined in code. I'll have to look into this, but I'm tremendously busy with client work this month.

I am probably going to simply remove this content type in the next release - see #993776: Refactor the OpportunityContactRole integration into a separate module, and make it not based on nodes.

Thanks; I'll check back on this issue over the next few weeks. I just want to remove the content type so it doesn't clutter up the interface and confuse backend users.

To update on the progress of #993776: Refactor the OpportunityContactRole integration into a separate module, and make it not based on nodes - I am about halfway to removing the content type. This next alpha will still have it, but the next one after that should not.

As for disabling the module, you should also remove the code from your system. That should solve the issue described in your OP, in which case I will mark this as "fixed". Can you let me know if that works?

I just removed this content type from the dev release. I don't know why this happens though - have my instructions solved this?

Sorry for the slow response. To clarify - by "remove the code from your system", do you mean I should go into the mySQL table and remove some information? If so, could you provide some guidance as to what exactly I should do?

I already disabled and uninstalled the module, then deleted the code from my sites/all/modules folder.

Thanks.

I actually have encountered this issue with other modules that provide content types that I later disabled. I think it is possibly something with Drupal core itself.
