Old Shortlinks Don't work, Plugin won't clear "bad" data

  • Hi, I previously setup the bitly plugin with a custom short domain that no longer belongs to me. Because of this the old domain is still in the data, but cannot be used. Because bitly hijacks the permalink + post archive pages are linked with these bitly links, it’s impossible to navigate to these pages on my blog.
    I would really like to be able to clear the previous data and reload with a new working short domain. How can I go about doing this?

    Update: going into my sql server and running this command fixed the issue for me. In the future maybe this could be put into the plugin?
    DELETE FROM wp_postmeta WHERE meta_key like '%bitly%'
