Delete all plugin data from the database​

To delete all plugin data and translations from the database, you have to access it using a management tool like phpMyAdmin and delete all the created tables, options, and meta keys.

Delete database tables​

  • wp_twt_dictionary* – the dictionary tables contain manually or automatically translated strings
  • wp_twt_gettext* – the gettext tables contain theme/plugin strings which already have a translation
  • wp_twt_original_strings – the original strings table contains strings in the default language, without any translation
  • wp_twt_original_meta – the original meta table contains meta information which refers to the post parent’s id

Delete all the options and meta keys​

  • _postmeta table – meta keys inserted into the _postmeta table have _twt_ prefix
  • _termmeta table – meta keys inserted into the _termmeta table have _twt_ prefix
  • _options table – options inserted into the _options table have the twt_ prefix
  • _usermeta table – meta keys inserted into the _usermeta table have twt_ prefix

To delete all the data using SQL queries:

delete from wp_options where option_name like 'twt_%';
delete from wp_termmeta where meta_key like '_twt_%';
delete from wp_postmeta where meta_key like '_twt_%';
delete from wp_usermeta where meta_key like '_twt_%';
