Sounds about right. IIRC the scores are stored as postmeta, which means that wp serializes them into strings.
Yeah sure, but my DB grew in a coupe of days from 100MB to 1.8GB so far. Is there any “check” if all entries are unique made?
The entries are unique, unless you change the storage_id setting on the admin page. It’s also possible to store the scores as transients, see http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Transients_API . So it’s for example possible to store them in memory with memcached.
I’ve just checked the code and see that I never added the post meta cleanup code. I’ll do this asap, the scoring data really should be dropped sometimes.
Hey Nkuttler,
Thanks that would be nice. Wel if i would em save in transients and if i get u right, my RAM would soon full of it. A Cleanup Code would be better i think 🙂
Hi there, Has this issue been fixed? If not yet, when will this be taken care of? Thanks.
Also wondering what the status of this is.
post meta cleanup really would be a nice feature
Hey guys, sorry for not having added this yet.
If some finds the time it can be implemented with
http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Function_Reference/register_uninstall_hook
http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Function_Reference/delete_post_meta
and probably a WP_Query() to loop over all posts.
I don’t use wordpress personally any more, only for client projects, so I’m less motivated to fix stuff in my free plugins… sorry..
