Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records Dejunk DB version 1.0.4 as active, updated 1mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
Over time, your WordPress database accumulates a massive amount of unnecessary data—like post revisions, auto-drafts, orphaned metadata, and expired transients. This bloat slows down your site and increases your backup sizes.
Dejunk DB is a lightweight, intuitive, and highly secure tool designed to clean up this orphaned and duplicated data, optimizing your database for peak performance.
Before making any changes, Dejunk DB provides a built-in Backup Engine so you can safely create a snapshot of your database and download it locally.
🚀 Key Features
Built-In Database Backups: Create, download, and manage secure.sql backups of your database directly from the plugin dashboard before you clean.
Preview Before Dejunking: View the exact items (up to 500 records) that are flagged for deletion in a clean, AJAX-powered modal so you know exactly what is being removed.
Post Data Cleanup: Safely remove Post Revisions, Auto Drafts, Trashed Posts, and Orphaned Post Meta.
Comment Cleanup: Quickly delete Spam, Trashed, and Unapproved Comments.
User & Term Cleanup: Clear out Orphaned User Meta and Orphaned Term Relationships.
Options Cleanup: Flush stale and expired Transient Options ( _transient_ and _site_transient_ ) that bloat the wp_options table without wiping active transients.
Table Optimization: Run standard MySQL OPTIMIZE TABLE commands on all your WordPress tables with a single click.
Global “Dejunk Everything” Switch: A master switch to clean up all identified junk sections instantly.
Clean Uninstall: When you uninstall Dejunk DB, it automatically cleans up its transients and securely deletes all backup files it created, leaving zero footprint.
Note: Any dejunking done to your database is irreversible. Please always utilize the built-in backup tool before running a cleanup.
