Hi Lester,
Fast turnaround! I love the new Details button, but it does not work for me. It does nothing. I may have installed the beta version wrong. I deleted 1.0.2, installed 1.0.3, and then renamed the directory to wp-sweep.
I also noticed the blue Sweep button for the Term Sweep is now called Details instead of Sweep. (All the rest of the blue buttons say Sweep.)
Just thought I’d provide some feedback.
Hi Christee,
Got it, I realised the JS is out of date. I will fix it later.
Hi Christee,
I have fixed it, can you redownload it?
Hi Lester,
Details works! Now I can see and easily clean up what some plugins I no longer use left around. Very nice.
One small issue: The blue Sweep button for the Term Sweep is called Details instead of Sweep. Basically Term Sweep show 2 Details buttons for each row – one blue, one gray.
Of course, now people – like me 😉 – could ask for things like selectively sweep only some items instead of all or none. But you’ve got the primary concern well covered. A nice way to clean up!
Keep up the good work!
Hi Christee,
Thanks, I fixed it
Unlikely, I will add the selective sweep, since it is ajax now, you can click 16 times pretty fast without refresh
Hi Lester,
I’ve been using this a bit more. Here are some other observations:
– Auto Draft details all say Auto Draft rather than the post/page name.
– Sweep of Orphaned Term Relationship does not appear to work.
– If Details are displayed and you press Sweep for that area, you might want to clear the details, since they no longer apply.
– Unused Terms – Uncategorized is shown as a term that will be deleted, but I believe that is a WordPress default, so should probably be excluded.
– Unused Terms – One of the post formats supported by my theme, post-format-gallery, is shown as a term that will be deleted. Is that safe to delete? Will it be recreated?
One more:
– Unused Terms – I have a parent category that has nothing assigned directly to it, but it has children. It is shown as a term that will be deleted, but since it is a parent, it is actually used and should not be deleted.
Christee,
Good pickups on what you’ve found so far…
Here’s another concern, but I’m not sure if I’m correct or not. I have an entertainment blog with multi-tagged music videos. I use many of the same tags in all of the videos, so that music sub-categories can be searched by a single individual tag.
The Post Sweep section shows a Duplicated Post Meta Count of 459. When I click on the details button, it shows repetition of 1. _encloseme 2. _pingme 3. _encloseme 4. _pingme all the way to #78 (not 459?). Not sure what that means, but what I want to be absolutely sure of is that the Post Tags NEVER get deleted.
Can I be assured of that using this plugin?
@shapeshifter 3: To be honest there is no sure way, that is the reason why at the top I recommend you to backup your plugin database first.
For duplicated, it will not show all the duplications because it doesn’t make sense, so for your case 78 is correct because it is group by “post_id, meta_key, meta_value”. So there are 78 distinct values but in total there are 459 records because it includes duplication
@christee:
– Auto Draft details all say Auto Draft rather than the post/page name.
A: Yeap, that is what is being stored in WordPress.
– Sweep of Orphaned Term Relationship does not appear to work.
A: Looks like you got the same error thrown by WordPress as well.
– If Details are displayed and you press Sweep for that area, you might want to clear the details, since they no longer apply.
A: Good point.
– Unused Terms – Uncategorized is shown as a term that will be deleted, but I believe that is a WordPress default, so should probably be excluded.
A: I will take a look at it
– Unused Terms – One of the post formats supported by my theme, post-format-gallery, is shown as a term that will be deleted. Is that safe to delete? Will it be recreated?
A: That I am not sure, it depends on the theme actually.
– Unused Terms – I have a parent category that has nothing assigned directly to it, but it has children. It is shown as a term that will be deleted, but since it is a parent, it is actually used and should not be deleted.
A: Good pickup. Unused Terms to be honest is tricky, so many possible cases. Thanks for picking it up. I will fix it. Maybe I will use unused tags.
Hi @christee,
I have fixed all the Unused Terms issues that you reported, namely parent term and default term.
I also hide the details after the sweep is done.
1.0.3 has been release! Thanks for the feedback!
