Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Advanced Database Cleaner – Optimize & Clean Database to Speed Up Site Performance
As you use WordPress, your database accumulates a large amount of unnecessary data such as revisions, spam comments, trashed comments, and more. This clutter slowly increases the size of your database, which can make your site slower and make backups take longer. Cleaning this data keeps your site lighter, faster, and easier to maintain.
Yes, it is safe. The plugin does not run any code that can break your site or delete posts, pages, or approved comments. It only removes items that WordPress considers unnecessary. However, you should always back up your database before performing any cleanup. This is required, not optional! Backups ensure you can always restore your site if something unexpected happens.
Optimizing your database reclaims unused space and reorganizes the way data is stored inside your tables. Over time, tables become fragmented, especially on active websites. Optimization reduces storage usage and improves the speed at which your database responds. This process is safe and can significantly improve performance on large or busy websites.
Cron jobs allow WordPress and plugins to run tasks automatically (like checking for updates or sending emails). When a plugin is removed, some of its cron jobs may remain behind. These leftover tasks serve no purpose and can slow down wp-cron events. Cleaning unnecessary cron jobs is safe as long as you know which ones should be removed. If you are unsure, it is safer not to delete any cron jobs manually.
WordPress stores revisions for each saved draft or update so you can review older versions. Over time, these accumulate and take up space. SQL used by the plugin to delete revisions: DELETE FROM posts WHERE post_type = 'revision'
WordPress automatically creates auto-drafts while you are editing posts/pages. If those drafts are never published, they remain in the database. SQL used by the plugin to delete auto-drafts: DELETE FROM posts WHERE post_status = 'auto-draft'
Pending comments are comments waiting for your approval. If you have many bots submitting comments, this list can grow quickly. SQL used by the plugin to delete pending comments: DELETE FROM comments WHERE comment_approved = '0'
Spam comments are comments flagged as spam by you or by an anti-spam plugin. They can safely be deleted. SQL used by the plugin to delete spam comments: DELETE FROM comments WHERE comment_approved = 'spam'
Trash comments are deleted comments moved to the trash. They are no longer visible and can be permanently removed. SQL used by the plugin to delete trash comments: DELETE FROM comments WHERE comment_approved = 'trash'
Trackbacks are a legacy system used by WordPress to allow one website to notify another that it has linked to its content. When a site receives a trackback, it appears as a type of comment on the post. Because trackbacks can be sent manually, they became heavily abused by spammers who use them to post unwanted links on websites. SQL used by the plugin to delete trackbacks: DELETE FROM comments WHERE comment_type = 'trackback'
