 * Hello!
    I uninstalled your plugin (pending going live, as I’m in a staging site),
   but the tables on the database are still there. Can I delete them? Will it break
   my site?
 * thank you!

 * Hi [@arutha176](https://wordpress.org/support/users/arutha176/)
 * I hope you’re well today and thank you for your question!
 * There should be four tables I believe:
 * wp_blc_filters
    wp_blc_instances wp_blc_links wp_blc_synch
 * Note: your setup may be using different table prefix than default “wp_” but you
   should recognize these tables anyway.
 * It’s safe to remove them and it won’t break the site. They are only used by the
   plugin and if you install the plugin again in future, it should re-create them.
 * Kind regards,
    Adam
