• Table optimizer — Run OPTIMIZE TABLE on all fragmented WordPress tables
• Interface languages — Catalan, Spanish and English UI with per-user language preference
• Cache-plugin compatible — Compatible with LiteSpeed Cache and other caching plugins

Detection is heuristic, not perfect

WordPress does not record which database table belongs to which plugin. TSO Options & Tables Cleaner infers ownership from table prefixes, plugin folders on disk, install history, and other signals. That works well for many sites, but it cannot be 100% accurate in every case.

You may occasionally see:

• A table marked as probably orphaned while the plugin is still installed or active (false positive)
• A leftover table not flagged as orphaned after uninstall (false negative)
• Recent activity on a table because MySQL metadata was updated (maintenance, repair, or unreliable timestamps on some engines) even though the plugin is gone
• Unclear ownership for shared prefixes, renamed plugin folders, or custom tables

The plugin is intentionally conservative: when confidence is low, delete actions are blocked and you will see Review only. Always check the plugin list, export SQL before dropping tables, and use manual assignment when the automatic label looks wrong. Never delete a table unless you are sure it is safe for your site.
