Title: Removing wp_mgmlp_old_posts table? Last modified: December 2, 2019 --- # Removing wp_mgmlp_old_posts table? * Resolved [Total Motorcycle](https://wordpress.org/support/users/totalmotorcycle/) * (@totalmotorcycle) * [6 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/removing-wp_mgmlp_old_posts-table/) * Good day, * I have a table in my WordPress called “wp_mgmlp_old_posts” and I am wondering if it is directly related to the TablePress plugin. I do not have TablePress installed thus can I safely delete this table? * Thank you, * Mike Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) * Plugin Author [Tobias Bäthge](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tobiasbg/) * (@tobiasbg) * [6 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/removing-wp_mgmlp_old_posts-table/#post-12196447) * Hi, * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble. * I don’t know where this table is coming from, sorry. It definitely does not belong to TablePress (because TablePress does not create any database tables). * Regards, Tobias * Thread Starter [Total Motorcycle](https://wordpress.org/support/users/totalmotorcycle/) * (@totalmotorcycle) * [6 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/removing-wp_mgmlp_old_posts-table/#post-12196504) * Thanks Tobias I appreciate the fast response. 🙂 * My investigation continues then. There is very little information on the table“ wp_mgmlp_*” and if you are courious way I asked you it was a post [ from here](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/where-does-tablepress-store-data-in-wp/) lead me to ask you. * Have a great day, Mike * Plugin Author [Tobias Bäthge](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tobiasbg/) * (@tobiasbg) * [6 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/removing-wp_mgmlp_old_posts-table/#post-12196584) * Hi Mike, * what are the column headers of that table? Maybe that helps us find a source for it? * Regards, Tobias * Thread Starter [Total Motorcycle](https://wordpress.org/support/users/totalmotorcycle/) * (@totalmotorcycle) * [6 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/removing-wp_mgmlp_old_posts-table/#post-12196653) * Your awesome, I appreciate the insight.

So, my guess is that this is maybe a backup of an earlier state of that table? You can therefore probably delete it, but just to be safe, you could backup an exported .sql file to your local computer. * Regards, Tobias * Thread Starter [Total Motorcycle](https://wordpress.org/support/users/totalmotorcycle/) * (@totalmotorcycle) * [6 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/removing-wp_mgmlp_old_posts-table/#post-12201374) * Thanks Tobias, you are awesome! * Plugin Author [Tobias Bäthge](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tobiasbg/) * (@tobiasbg) * [6 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/removing-wp_mgmlp_old_posts-table/#post-12201873) * Hi, * no problem, you are very welcome! 🙂 Good to hear that this helped! * Best wishes, Tobias Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) The topic ‘Removing wp_mgmlp_old_posts table?’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/tablepress/assets/icon.svg?rev=3192944) * [TablePress - Tables in WordPress made easy](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tablepress/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tablepress/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/tablepress/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/tablepress/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/tablepress/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/tablepress/reviews/) ## Tags * [remove](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/remove/) * [table](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/table/) * 7 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [Tobias Bäthge](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tobiasbg/) * Last activity: [6 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/removing-wp_mgmlp_old_posts-table/#post-12201873) * Status: resolved
