harshweParticipantHello Luke,
I found few entries of DB tables, while checking DB from cPanel, while I was trying to optimize the DB, as well as minimize the size as well.
In order to cross-verify further we installed WP Optimize on staging site and found the same entries. Which even shows, that, as to what plugin the specific entry is related to. As well, whether the plugin is Not-installed and Not Active too.PS: We are asking only for those entries of DB Tables, that are related to Woodmart and their full supported plugins only. And not for 3rd party plugins. Hence, I request you to please take a look on these and suggest.
You can check from staging site. Admin > WP Optimize > Database > Tables (2nd tab). Credentials shared.What entries I concern about and found, as of now-
1. Revolution Slider – https://i.paste.pics/a173f534d12c208d5390b099f5bdc14b.png
2. Multi Vendor (Dokan) – https://i.paste.pics/4328fb196d077aef0509ab10363c9bb8.png
3. Multi Vendor (wcfm) – https://i.paste.pics/dec46517bebe2a74336d3e954d2b1568.pngWhy they exists–
If we have already removed the Slider Rev, Dokan, WCFM Multi vendor and few other plugins, the DB entries are still intact. Shall not those be removed too.Is it Safe–
Is it safe to remove the entries marked for same below ones, as the relevant plugins have been Deactivated and Removed as well and we have No plans in near future to use these-
1. Rev Slider – https://i.paste.pics/a173f534d12c208d5390b099f5bdc14b.png2. Dokan – https://i.paste.pics/4328fb196d077aef0509ab10363c9bb8.png
3. WCFM (other Multivendor) – https://i.paste.pics/dec46517bebe2a74336d3e954d2b1568.png
In case of 3rd one WCFM Multivendor, there are 2 types of entries.
One type – Not showing any sign of Not-installed.
Second type – Showing sign of Not-installed (in red color, as can be seen from above screenshot)So is it safe to delete both type of entries. That are having marked as wcfm in DB tables.
Please suggest.
Regards

Luke NielsenKeymasterHello,
All these data values come automatically to the database therefore our theme cannot influent it.
We appreciate your patience, understanding & cooperation in this regard.
Kind Regards

harshweParticipantHello Luke,
But the entries I am referring to are of the Plugins that comes bundled with the Theme. That is why I am asking.
Also, as I am NOT using any of these plugins (and have already removed or deleted them), hence wanted to know, is it safe to Delete the entries associated with these in the Database.What entries I concern about and found, as of now-
1. Revolution Slider – https://i.paste.pics/a173f534d12c208d5390b099f5bdc14b.png
2. Multi Vendor (Dokan) – https://i.paste.pics/4328fb196d077aef0509ab10363c9bb8.png
3. Multi Vendor (wcfm) – https://i.paste.pics/dec46517bebe2a74336d3e954d2b1568.pngYou can check from staging site. Admin > WP Optimize > Database > Tables (2nd tab). Credentials shared.
So, just wanted to know,
Is it Safe–
to remove the entries marked for same below ones, as the relevant plugins have been Deactivated and Removed as well and we have No plans in near future to use these.PS: Our main motive is to try to optimize the DB, as well as minimize the size as well, by removing redundant entries

Luke NielsenKeymasterHello,
I have contacted the developer team and they confirmed that these keys from the database are not related to the theme so it is better not to touch them so as not to disrupt the site. We do not recommend making changes to the database.
Thanks for your time and have a great day.
Kind Regards
