 * I changed themes, and there’s a bunch of leftover custom fields on posts, will
   this plugin get rid of those?

 * Nope custom field is tied to post. As Long as the post exist, the post meta is
   there. There is no way the plugin will know what is in used and what is not.

 * Ok, thank you. I did try your plugin. Let me ask you, is there any way that your
   plugin could erase anything having to do with the default tabs in woo commerce
   for product description and reviews?

 * Might be possible but I can’t confirm since I don’t use woo commerce myself.
