Why is W3 Total Cache writing into my database

  • I am very much annoyed – my SQL databsae is filled with your feed”

    I had a look at my database and I am very much annoyed that W3 Total Cache is writing their feed into my data base – you cannot do this without permission.

    I downloaded my database and renamed the SQL to TXT and had a look at it with Notebook. Most of the content is not mine below is an extract.

    Please advise how to clean my database from unwanted information

    and I found following link in my SQL wordpress database

    https://w3e.fredericktest.netdna-cdn.com/

    I just found a whole slew of data written by this plugin, and I don’t want it in my database.

    Did you ever find a way to clean it? Do we need to report this?

    No, I found no way and it is pretty bad case that the module authors have not answered this mail. If I remember correctly I may also reported it to W3 also no response.

    I no longer care as I unloaded W3 as my page content depends on paid membership level and thus I have to run un-cached.

    I think that data has to do with the help page for W3 admin, but I do not understand the various links to other sites in that data.

    Thanks for the update. I’ve just posted a new thread asking for more help.

    I also stopped using the plugin; it just annoys me that I have this trash data in my database.
