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.

Hi @aaronmckeon,

Those are old meta fields, which are not used now.

In case you want to say thank you !)
We'd really appreciate and be thankful if you leave a good review on plugin page. This is the best way to say thank you to this project and support team.

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)?

@aaronmckeon,

wpForo 2.x code doesn't use the old user meta from the DB, so it doesn't mean you discard them or not.
