## Description

**EHERO Cleaner** is a maintenance toolkit for WordPress. It safely removes data
that bloats your database and slows your site down: expired transients, old post
revisions, spam and trashed comments, orphaned metadata, auto-drafts, leftover plugin
data, Action Scheduler history, expired sessions and more.

All operations use official WordPress APIs and only touch content that is already
trash, already expired or structurally orphaned. Your published content is never
touched.

#### Key features

 * **20+ cleanup tools** — transients, revisions, orphaned meta, Action Scheduler,
   WooCommerce sessions, feed cache, edit locks…
 * **Scheduled cleanup** — run selected tools automatically daily, twice-daily or
   weekly.
 * **Metadata viewer** — inspect all metadata on any post, product or taxonomy term.
   Groups keys by plugin of origin (WooCommerce, Yoast, Elementor…).
 * **Plugin meta detector** — scan your database for metadata left behind by uninstalled
   plugins and remove it.
 * **Manual run** — every tool has a “Run now” button with live item count.
 * **Risk labels** — each tool is clearly marked Safe or Moderate so you know what
   you are doing.
 * **Activity log** — keep a history of every cleanup performed.
 * **Bilingual** — Spanish and English included.

#### Why EHERO Cleaner?

Other cleanup plugins either do too little (just transients and revisions) or way
too much (dangerous bulk deletes with no safety). EHERO Cleaner focuses on **safe**,**
transparent** cleanups with a modern UI and a detector that tells you _which plugins
left trash behind_.

#### EHERO Plugin Ecosystem

EHERO Cleaner is part of a family of WordPress and WooCommerce plugins for agencies
and power users. When installed, a unified “EHERO” admin menu lets you manage all
EHERO plugins from one place.

### External services

This plugin includes a newsletter opt-in banner displayed on the plugin’s admin 
pages. This banner is used to offer administrators a discount coupon in exchange
for subscribing to the EHERO newsletter. It can be permanently dismissed with a 
single click.

#### Coupon information retrieval

When the banner is displayed, the plugin sends a GET request to the following endpoint
to retrieve the current discount amount:
 https://consultoriaehero.com/wp-json/ehero-
leads/v1/coupon-info No personal data is transmitted in this request. The response
is cached for 12 hours.

#### Newsletter subscription

When a user voluntarily subscribes through the banner, the following data is sent
via POST to:
 https://consultoriaehero.com/wp-json/ehero-leads/v1/subscribe

Data sent: email address, first name, site URL, and language preference.

This service is provided by Consultoría EHERO S.L.U:
 * [Terms of service](https://consultoriaehero.com/terminos-y-condiciones/)*
[Privacy policy](https://consultoriaehero.com/politica-de-privacidad/)

The banner can be permanently dismissed by any administrator, after which no further
external requests are made.

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/ehero-cleaner` directory, or
    install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
 2. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” screen in WordPress.
 3. Go to **EHERO  Cleaner** in your admin menu.
 4. Run your first cleanup from the Dashboard or configure Scheduled cleanup in Settings.

## FAQ

### Is it safe to delete transients?

Yes. Expired transients serve no purpose — WordPress would eventually delete them
anyway. Deleting all transients is safe but may cause a brief slowdown while caches
regenerate.

### Can I lose content?

No. The tools only remove content that is already trashed, marked as spam, or technically
unnecessary (orphaned metadata, auto-drafts). Your published content is never touched.

### Do I need WooCommerce?

No. EHERO Cleaner works with any WordPress installation, with or without WooCommerce.
WooCommerce-specific tools (sessions, download logs) only appear if WooCommerce 
is active.

### Can I schedule automatic cleanups?

Yes. In Settings you can enable scheduled cleanup and choose frequency (twice daily,
daily or weekly) and which tools to run.

### Does this plugin connect to any external service?

The plugin’s cleanup functionality is entirely local — no external calls are made
for any cleanup operation. However, a newsletter opt-in banner displayed on the 
plugin’s admin pages connects to consultoriaehero.com to retrieve coupon information
and to process voluntary subscriptions. See the “External services” section for 
full details. The banner can be permanently dismissed by any administrator.

### What happens to Action Scheduler data?

The plugin offers dedicated tools to clean Action Scheduler: completed actions older
than 30 days, failed actions, cancelled actions and orphan logs. On busy WooCommerce
stores this alone can reclaim hundreds of MB.
