    We’ve been using Simple Local Avatars for a good number of years now. We noticed that “simple_local_avatars_migrations” is an autoloaded option for our site. Is it safe to remove it from our list of autoload options? Thank you!

    Hey @spaceling,

    Yes, we’d expect it to be safe to remove simple_local_avatars_migrations from your site’s autoloaded options.

    That option is only used to store which users have already been processed by the “Migrate avatars from WP User Avatar to Simple Local Avatars” migration tool, so they are not attempted again on a future migration run. It is not needed on every request and does not need to be autoloaded. I would not recommend deleting the option outright unless you are sure you no longer need that migration history. But changing the option so it is no longer autoloaded should be fine.

    We’ll also make a note to review this in the plugin so it can be stored as a non-autoloaded option going forward.

    Thanks for flagging it!
