Redirection logs & 404 reached over 2.4GB db size
-
Godaddy contacted me to notify my database had exceeded the 1GB size limit. After contacting them they determined the tables at fault were the wp_redirection_logs and the wp_redirection_404
I opened the Redirection settings in WordPress and noticed the 404s section had 4,227,487 items.
The logs section had 5,142,793 items.
I wonder if the settings for the plugin can have a default — that may help prevent excessive logging. I noticed the options default is
Expire Logs: 0 days (enter 0 for no expiry)
Godaddy had scheduled deletion of the entire database for exceeding 2.9GB. After deleting both tables in the PHPMyAdmin, seems all is good.
