WPDBSpringClean

By WPSolutions-HQ

Description

1) Database Table Clean:

Many plugins do not clean up their database tables after you uninstall them.

What happens most of the time is that the plugin files and folder is deleted but not the corresponding plugin database tables.

This where this plugin comes to the rescue. The WPDBSpringClean plugin identifies unused, WordPress DB tables which have
been left over from old plugins you have uninstalled on your site and it then gives you the option of deleting these tables.

2) Database Table Optimization:

Due to regular insertions and deletions in the various DB tables on your system, these tables can quite often hold allocated but unused space.
Consequently this can make your DB tables inefficient, fragmented and unoptimized.
This plugin will identify unoptimized tables and will allow you to optimize them by deleting the allocated unused space within a particular table.
The plugin also optionally allows you to specify search criteria such as the minimum amount of overhead per table and minimum unused space for a table.

By default if no search criteria is specified, the plugin will identify all tables which have an overhead of greater than 10%.
(Note: “Overhead” in this plugin is defined as (Data_free/Data_length) expressed as a percentage and where Data_free and Data_length are MySQL table parameters)

FAQ

Will this plugin prevent me from deleting the wrong table?

WPDBSpringClean identifies only those database tables which are considered
not part of any of your installed plugins (either ACTIVE or INACTIVE).
When WPDBSpringClean has finished its query it will list all of the tables it
believes are not being used and it will give you the option of deleting some or all of these tables.

(As a matter of prudence it is recommended that you take a DB backup if you are unsure about deleting particular tables)

It does detect tables that are empty, which is a big difference from tables that are not used. So once you get the list you must really search the web for every single name, to find out that the web is not helpful at all. All in all, counting the very few other plugins that are supposed to help you in this matter (they all do half the job and are far too outdated) I believe we are still far beyond the moon.

Brilliant (but getting scary after 3 years and no update)

Brilliant and effective. Gets rid of loads of clutter that plug ins leave behind. There shouldn't even be a need for this plug in, but even pro versions with tens of thousands of installs don't necessarily ask if you want to retain data as part of uninstall. Since having it I have been far more likely to give a plug in a test run, knowing this will tidy up after it. BUT 3 years without an update, it is getting scary to use it. If 'wpsolutions' is out there and reads this, come back man. I would love to see 'update available' in my plug in list.

Excelente plugin
