Keep your database light and fast effortlessly.
Is your <code>wp_options</code> table weighing in at tens of megabytes? Are your <code>actionscheduler</code> tables slowing down your backups? Fand Transient and Action Cleaner is the essential tool for WordPress site owners who want to automate their database maintenance.
Unlike other global cleanup tools, this plugin surgically targets temporary data and task logs that silently accumulate and eventually impact your admin performance.
<h3>🧹 Two-step cleanup</h3>
This plugin doesn’t just delete temporary data; it tackles the two main sources of clutter:
<ol>
<li>
WordPress Transients: It identifies and removes expired transients left behind by other plugins, including those containing success or failure markers that are no longer needed.
</li>
<li>
The Action Scheduler: It thoroughly cleans the action tables (<code>wp_actionscheduler_actions</code>). It purges logs and completed or failed tasks (statuses: complete, success, failed, error) that accumulate by the thousands.
</li>
</ol>
<h3>⚙️ Your settings, your choice</h3>
The interface is designed to be simple and efficient. You maintain complete control over your data:
<ul>
<li>
Failure management: Set a retention period for error logs (15 days by default) to give you time to debug before cleaning.
</li>
<li>
Success history: Delete completed tasks after a defined period (30 days by default).
</li>
<li>
Full automation: A global cleanup task is scheduled weekly to maintain your site’s performance without you having to think about it.
</li>
</ul>
<h3>✨ Why choose Fand Transient and Action Cleaner?</h3>
<ul>
<li>
Lightweight: No code overhead; it does exactly what it’s supposed to.
</li>
<li>
Secure: Uses native WordPress functions to guarantee database integrity.
</li>
<li>
Transparent: Directly displays the number of items eligible for cleaning so you know exactly what you’ll gain.

</ul>
