Whether it’s orphaned options, leftover post meta, unused comments, transients, or more, the plugin gives you a clear picture of what’s in your database and lets you clean it up with confidence. The plugin automatically detects the likely origin of each database entry — plugin, theme, or WordPress core — so you always know what you’re dealing with before you delete anything. ### Why use CodingBunny Database Cleaner? * See what’s really in your database: get a clear overview of all entries, with auto-detected source. * Clean safely: every action is protected by nonces, role checks, and confirmation prompts.

All cleanup actions require administrator privileges and are protected by nonces and confirmation prompts. That said, always back up your database before running any cleanup — this is essential, not optional. ### Can I undo a deletion? No. Once data is deleted, it cannot be automatically restored. Please take a full database backup before performing any cleanup operations. ### Does it work with Multisite? Yes. The plugin is fully compatible with WordPress Multisite. You can choose to clean individual subsites rather than the entire network. ### How does origin detection work? The plugin checks table names, option names, and meta keys against a built-in detection database to identify which plugin or theme likely created each entry. If it gets something wrong, you can submit a correction to help improve detection for everyone. ### Does it work on large databases? Yes. Results are paginated and queries are optimized for performance. On very large databases, we recommend running cleanups in smaller batches. ### What PHP version is required? PHP 8.2 or later. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “CodingBunny Database Cleaner” is open source software.
