    Hi

    I had created a relationship field for Users extended with one of my CPTs.
    Then, I deleted that field/relationship but it seems that the database remained loaded with a lot of unnecessary relationship fields.

    What can I do to repair this?

    *repair = clean of unused/deleted fields/relationships.

    Hi @tazar64

    Pods doesn’t remove the metadata when you remove the fields.
    You can do this yourself manually in the database.
    Since there is many metadata available (not just Pods related) it’s a risky feature to do this through the UI since we do not know what fields are old Pods fields and what fields are created by core or other plugins.

    Cheers, Jory

    Ooops, that means I super-bloated my websites’ databases with a ton of fields and relationships while I was learning and testing 🙁

    I didn’t plan before I build…
