What it does
Database cleanup
Revisions, auto-drafts, spam, expired transients, orphaned meta and more, each with a live count and a preview before anything is deleted.
Scheduled cleanups
Each cleanup type on its own schedule, hourly to monthly, keeping the last N days.
Tables
Rows, size and overhead for every table. Optimize, repair, convert to InnoDB, and find tables left by removed plugins.
Autoload usage tracker
Finds autoloaded options your site never reads, so you can turn their autoload off safely.
Option history and snapshots
Every option change can be restored, and a snapshot of wp_options is taken before risky changes.
Options and meta editor
Browse, add, edit and delete options and post, user, comment and term meta, serialized values included.
All of this is in the free plugin. The full list is in the readme on WordPress.org.

Taxes are added at checkout where they apply. Payment is handled by Paddle, our reseller.

Questions
Do I need the free plugin for Pro?
Yes. Pro is an add-on: install NHR Database Cleaner from WordPress.org, then upload Pro and enter your licence key.
What happens when a yearly licence ends?
Pro keeps working. You stop getting updates and support until you renew.
Can I move a licence to another site?
Yes. Deactivate it on the old site, or remove the site in My account, then activate it on the new one.
Can I undo a cleanup?
Changes to options can be restored from Activity, and snapshots cover the options table. Cleanups of posts, comments, meta and tables are permanent, which is why each one shows a preview and asks first. Take a full database backup before a large cleanup.
Is it a malware scanner?
No. It removes unused data and optimizes tables. It does not look for malicious code.
How do refunds work?
See the refund policy.
