    Hello,

    I am trying to clean up the options table of our site which runs Updraft plus.

    I have quite a few entries in the wp_options table that look like this –

    updraft_lock_d885e4663aeb

    What do these entries do and is it safe to remove them?

    Also, I see many records in wp_options for updraft plus that are autoloaded. Is it really necessary to load all of this stuff on every page on the front end of our site and what is the impact if I turn autoload off for all of the updraft plus entries? Are there any that are critical for have the autoload option remain on?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Thank you for the information but this is not my question. I don’t want to uninstall updraft plus. I can see that the plugin has failed to complete backups multiple times and it appears that there are many leftover lock likes like this one –

    updraft_lock_d885e4663aeb

    in the wp_options table. First, I want to know if it’s OK to delete these manually or will do this somehow affect the operation of my updraft plus installation?

    Secondly, updraft plus has ALOT of autoloading records in wp_options. Given that the program does not need to run on every page, I would like to trim down all of the automatic Loading which must take place on EVERY page on our website. I am also trying to determine if any of these updraft plus records MUST be autoloaded on every page for updraft plus to work.

    I am looking forward to answers to these questions.
