Hi,

I just install WPForo plugin and whilst doing maintenance on my site using the - Garbage Collector plugin - https://wordpress.org/plugins/plugins-garbage-collector/

The following tables have been flagged to be deleted.

wp_wpforo_accesses

wp_wpforo_forums

wp_wpforo_languages

wp_wpforo_likes

wp_wpforo_post_revisions

wp_wpforo_subscribes

wp_wpforo_topics

wp_wpforo_views

wp_wpforo_visits

wp_wpforo_votes

 

Can you please confirm if they can be deleted or if they need to be flagged as "Active" with the Garbage Collector plugin?

Thanks.

Hi @jmccoy,

Do you still use wpForo forum plugin? If so, you should not delete them.

If not you can activate wpForo and click on the uninstall (not the deactivate) button and wpForo will remove all his tables.

@martin - thanks for the reply.

I've only installed WPForo - surprised they were flagged - thought it might be some tables that could be cleaned up.

Ok great, I'll contact the plugin creator to white list these entries.
