Database Cleaner Pro v1.3.7 – Meow Apps

Database Cleaner Pro (developed by Meow Apps) is a comprehensive optimization solution designed to clean and speed up WordPress databases of all sizes. Instead of simply deleting junk data, this plugin uses the data origin identifier of the tables and options to hide the cache, freeing up memory and reducing CPU load on the server.

Key Features of Database Cleaner Pro

• Smart Plugin Identification (Plugin Insights): This is the most affordable feature of the Pro version. The system can identify data from over 5,000 different plugins. It will clearly show you which table data (Tables), post types (Post Types), or option rows (Options) belong to which plugin, even plugins you’ve long since uninstalled.
• Control Auto-Loading Options (Auto-Load Options): By default, WordPress loads all data marked with an auto-load sign (=) into RAM every time a user visits the site. This plugin helps you detail this data, allowing you to remove junk files or disable auto-loading (autoload = no) for unnecessary plugins to improve website responsiveness.
• Background Automated Scanning System (Background Scanning): Integrates an automated cleaning tool (called Nyao Sweeper) that runs through a Cron Job system. This mechanism analyzes SQL commands to automatically clean up data on a schedule without affecting website performance.
• In-depth Analysis and Smart Filters: Supports Expert Mode, displaying detailed information about the number of rows and size of each table. Advanced analysis accurately detects orphaned metadata – data left over after you delete posts or member accounts.
• WordPress Core Structure Cleanup: Supports cleaning up versions, trash posts, spam comments, expired temporary data, and duplicate metadata rows.

Differences between Free and Pro Versions:

• Free Version: Allows cleaning up junk databases (modified, temporary, junk), listing table data, and manual editing. The Free version also supports handling large databases through controlled query statements.
• Pro Version: Unlocks the entire native plugin database (over 5,000 plugins), allows setting up automatic deep scan schedules (Auto Clean), in-depth analysis of hidden data, and advanced automatic data loading optimization.

Important Recommendations

Editing and deleting data in the database can immediately change the website structure. Meow Apps developers encourage users to back up the entire database information using their hosting provider’s tool or plugin specialists before performing any bulk deletion commands.
