## Description

Elevoire Database Optimizer is a lightweight, privacy-friendly database maintenance
tool for WordPress administrators who want a cleaner database without needing any
technical database knowledge.

It scans for common sources of unnecessary database growth and shows you exactly
what it found before anything is removed. Nothing is deleted automatically — every
cleanup requires you to review a preview and explicitly confirm.

**What it cleans**

 * **Post revisions** — keeps a configurable number of the most recent revisions
   per post and removes the rest. The current published or draft content is never
   touched.
 * **Auto-drafts** — removes stale auto-drafts older than a threshold you choose.
 * **Trashed content** — permanently deletes items already sitting in the trash,
   past an age threshold you choose. Nothing is moved to trash by this plugin.
 * **Spam comments** — permanently deletes comments already marked as spam. Approved,
   pending, and unapproved comments are never affected.
 * **Expired transients** — removes only transient cache data that has already expired
   according to WordPress’s own expiration timestamps.

**Also included**

 * A database overview showing total size, table counts, and the largest tables.
 * A table optimizer that reclaims overhead space on eligible tables, without changing
   table structure, indexes, or schema.
 * An optional, fully configurable scheduled cleanup using WP-Cron — off by default,
   and you choose exactly which tasks run and how often.
 * Safe batch processing designed to avoid timeouts and memory exhaustion on large
   sites.

#### Privacy

This plugin runs entirely on your own server. It does not collect telemetry, does
not send your database or site information anywhere, does not require an account
or license key, and makes no external network requests.

#### Safety

 * Every cleanup module shows a count before you can clean.
 * Destructive actions require explicit confirmation.
 * Nothing runs automatically unless you turn on scheduled cleanup, and even then
   only the tasks you enable will run.
 * A database backup is always recommended before permanent cleanup — this plugin
   does not create backups for you.

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin files to `/wp-content/plugins/elevoire-database-optimizer`, or
    install directly through the WordPress plugin screen.
 2. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” screen.
 3. Go to **Database Optimizer** in your WordPress admin menu to view your database
    overview.

## FAQ

### Will this delete my content?

No content is deleted unless you specifically scan a cleanup module, review what
it found, and click the cleanup button. Trashed content and spam comments are only
ever items already in those states — this plugin never moves content to trash or
marks comments as spam on its own.

### Does this create backups?

No. This plugin does not create or manage backups. We recommend taking a database
backup before running any permanent cleanup.

### Does it work on large sites?

Yes. Cleanup operations are processed in small batches to avoid timeouts and memory
issues, whether run manually or on a schedule.

### Does it support multisite?

Yes. Table analysis and cleanup operate per-site, and expired network-wide transients
are handled separately and safely.

### Does this send any data externally?

No. All scanning and cleanup happens locally on your WordPress installation. No 
telemetry, tracking, or external requests are made.

### Is there a Pro version?

Not yet. The About page in the plugin describes planned future capabilities for 
a separate premium add-on. The free plugin is fully functional on its own and nothing
in it is limited in anticipation of a paid version.
