• Hello!

    When we uninstall this plugin, will it automatically delete all database tables that it created, and all data in them?

    We believe that this plugin has created too many entires in our database and is causing the Woocommerce Product Export function not to work due to too much memory being used during export.

    LYTE does not have own tables, but yes it should remove the relevant options and post-meta entries.

    but for LYTE to cause issues with database size you would have to have thousands of videos on your site (with each post/page with a video having a post-meta field) really, so I would be very surprised this would be the root cause of your issues?

    hope this helps,

    Hi, we confirmed that the plugin did not remove the data after uninstall, so we had to manually remove all of the fields in PHPMyAdmin and Advanced Database Cleaner. When you export meta data with products in Woocommerce, this plugin had created hundreds of table entires that made the export and import process fail.

    sorry, my bad; I just checked the source code and there is logic to remove the cache (which includes post_meta) but that method is not being called when removing the plugin, I’ll add that to the backlog, because it indeed should be there.

    re. the hundreds of post_meta entries; so you indeed have hundreds of video’s?

    Hi Frank!

    Yes, each product on our website has one Youtube video, so there are 3,000 on one website and 20,000 on another.

    We were able to get all of the data removed, and are just going to use WP Rocket to lazyload the videos…that way there won’t be so many columns and rows in the Woocomerce product exports.

    Thank you!
