Can you tell me the difference between these sets of user meta fields?
- wpforo_read_topics
- wpforo_read_forums
..and..
- wpf_read_topics
- wpf_read_forums
It appears the ones with prefix 'wpforo' are what get updated, so maybe the 'wpf' ones are no longer used? They all have data so it's not clear to me. Thanks for any clarification.
Thanks, @chris
Those are old meta fields, which are not used now.
Is it safe to assume then this data is no longer needed and can be discarded (i.e. no longer needed even for old posts)?
wpForo 2.x code doesn't use the old user meta from the DB, so it doesn't mean you discard them or not.
