Tiu ĉi kromprogramo **ne estis testita en la 3 lastaj gravaj eldonoj de WordPress**.
Eble ĝi ne plu estas prizorgata kaj ĝi eble havus kongruajn problemojn en novaj 
versioj de WordPress.

## Priskribo

Custom post type posts are left in the database if a post type is no longer registered(
in use).

Plugins and themes can (without you knowing) use custom post types as a way to store
data. These posts stay in the database forever if they’re not cleaned up by the 
plugin/theme itself upon deletion.

There are a lot of plugins that clean your database (by removing revisions, drafts
etc.), but I haven’t found one that does a cleanup of unused post type posts.

This plugin provides an easy way to detect and remove posts from post types that
are no longer in use. The settings page for this plugin is at wp-admin > Tools >
Custom Post Type Cleanup.

**Note**: The proper WordPress delete function [wp_delete_post](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_delete_post/)
is used instead of running a direct MySQL query to delete the posts. This way all
associated post data (comments, post meta etc.) are also deleted from the database.

Since version 1.2.0 you can re-register unused custom post types for a limited period
of time. This allows you to inspect and delete the posts like you would normally(
in the wp-admin).

So I didn't have to 🙂 Awesome little handy tool to clean up old sites from obsolete
CPTs and their post meta. I wish it also supported custom taxonomies that were registered
for those obsolete CPTs.

Its a really simple to use plugin and working right out of the box. A nice feature
would be (if that is possible at all) to clean up abandoned taxonomies, too. Thx
for this nice plugin!

What a useful, little plugin! It helps clean up the database and keep it clean from
old and obsolete CPTs. Bravo to the developer who also swiftly updated it to the
latest version shortly after my support request. What else can you ask for?
