    I’m trying to clean up my database a little. Nothing is wrong and everything works fine. I just noticed that in my database I still have tables for the HDW Player and Sendpress plugin, both of which are no longer installed in my WordPress site. Not just deactivated – Deleted. I am using the Site Cloner Pro V3 and it also has HDW and Sendpress tables in the cloned sites section. In otherwords it looks a little like this:
    Structure wp1_2_hdwplayer
    Structure wp1_2_hdwplayer_gallery
    Structure wp1_2_hdwplayer_playlist
    Structure wp1_2_hdwplayer_videos
    Structure wp1_4_hdwplayer
    Structure wp1_4_hdwplayer_gallery
    Structure wp1_4_hdwplayer_playlist
    Structure wp1_4_hdwplayer_videos
    and a few more…

    The current cloned tables still look like this:
    Structure wp1_17_commentmeta
    Structure wp1_17_comments
    Structure wp1_17_hdwplayer
    Structure wp1_17_hdwplayer_gallery
    Structure wp1_17_hdwplayer_playlist
    Structure wp1_17_hdwplayer_videos
    Structure wp1_17_links
    Structure wp1_17_options
    Structure wp1_17_postmeta
    Structure wp1_17_posts
    Structure wp1_17_sendpress_list_subscribers
    Structure wp1_17_sendpress_queue
    Structure wp1_17_sendpress_report_url
    Structure wp1_17_sendpress_subscribers
    Structure wp1_17_sendpress_subscribers_event
    Structure wp1_17_sendpress_subscribers_meta
    Structure wp1_17_sendpress_subscribers_status

    Does anyone know if I can use the “Drop Table feature in the Php admin to get rid of these and clean the database up! Remember those two plugins have been deleted from my plugin directory.

    whatever you do back up the database a couple of times so you’ve got copies of copies!

    Sure, you can delete those tables.
    But make sure to backup the entire DB – just in case!

    Yes, definately will do a backup! just figured I would ask before I even started thinking about doing it in case someone has seen/done this before!
    Thanks.
