    Hi there,

    I have a lot of entries _transient_timeout_amp* in my wp_options table that don’t get deleted.

    Is it safe to remove them?

    Thanks.

    Sure, but they may just get regenerated again. The transients are caching things like parsed CSS stylesheets and the dimensions for images that lack width and height.

    Thanks @westonruter, I’ll see if they are regenerated. The thing is that I found very old transients in the database; is the plugin taking care of removing obsolete transients?

    Hello @psykonevro

    When a transient is created by AMP plugin, it’s assigned an expiration time. Once that time is reached, WordPress automatically removes the transient from the database. This is the default behavior.

    Each transient has a different expiration time, e.g. the Parsing CSS is a resource intensive operation, so we keep the transient for it for a month.

    The AMP plugin doesn’t need to explicitly delete transient data unless AMP plugin is being deleted, We also ensure that the user has opted-in Delete all the data from settings.
