    Hi, do the single exoired transient files have to be deleted manualy one by one?

    What is the difference between expired transient and those that have an expiration date-could that mean they are still activ?

    They will be deleted automatically.

    And expired transient is one that will be deleted / refreshed the next time that get_transient() is called for it.

    The transient data is actually stored in the database, not in files.

    Hello Pippin,

    thanks for that- so a transients clean out plug in would speed up erasing transients, since one could not predict on, how long they stay in the DB?

    Best,

    Unless you have a problem with thousands of transients becoming stagnant in the database, I would not recommend deleting transients in bulk without knowing precisely what they are for. Doing so could actually cause more significant performance problems.
