Descripció
Easy Actions Scheduler Cleaner by AyudaWP is a one-time use plugin designed to clean up your Actions Scheduler database tables. Over time, these tables can accumulate thousands or even millions of records from completed, failed, canceled, and past-due actions that are no longer needed, as well as extensive logs that can take up significant database space.
This plugin provides a safe and efficient way to:
- Delete completed actions – Actions that have already been executed successfully
- Delete failed actions – Actions that encountered errors during execution
- Delete canceled actions – Actions that were manually canceled
- Delete past-due actions – Actions that missed their scheduled execution time
- Delete old pending actions – Pending actions older than 30 days
- Delete action logs – Historical log records that accumulate over time and can become very large
Key Features
- One-time use design – Plugin automatically deactivates after cleanup
- Batch processing – Handles large datasets efficiently (10,000 records per batch)
- Safety warnings – Clear warnings and confirmations before executing
- Detailed reporting – Shows exactly how many records were deleted by type
- Orphaned data cleanup – Also removes related orphaned groups
- Complete logs cleanup – Removes all action logs that accumulate over time
- WooCommerce integration – Seamlessly works with WooCommerce’s Action Scheduler
Why Use This Plugin?
Actions Scheduler tool used by WooCommerce and many other WordPress plugins can accumulate millions of database records over time, which can:
- Slow down your website performance
- Increase database size unnecessarily
- Make database backups larger and slower
- Impact Actions Scheduler’s own performance
The action logs table (actionscheduler_logs) is particularly problematic as it records detailed information about every action execution and can grow exponentially on busy sites.
This plugin helps maintain a clean, optimized database by removing unnecessary historical records while preserving active and recent pending actions.
Important Notes
- One-time use – Designed to be used once and then deleted
- Irreversible action – Always backup your database before use
- Automatic deactivation – Plugin deactivates itself after cleanup

PMF
-
Is this safe to use?
-
Yes, but like any database operation, you should always backup your database first. The plugin only removes historical records that are no longer needed by WooCommerce.
-
Will this break my WooCommerce store?
-
No. The plugin only removes completed, failed, canceled, past-due, and old pending actions, plus action logs. It preserves all active and recent pending actions that WooCommerce still needs.
-
How many records will be deleted?
-
This depends on your store’s activity. Some stores may have thousands, others millions. The action logs table is often the largest. The plugin shows you the current database status before cleanup and detailed results after.
-
Can I undo the cleanup?
-
No, this operation is irreversible. That’s why we strongly recommend creating a database backup before using the plugin.
-
Will deleting action logs affect my store?
-
No. Action logs are purely historical records used for debugging and monitoring. Deleting them doesn’t affect store functionality but can significantly reduce database size.
-
How often should I use this?
-
This depends on your store’s activity. High-traffic stores might benefit from quarterly cleanups, while smaller stores might only need it annually. Monitor your database size and Actions Scheduler performance.
-
Does this work with Actions Scheduler Pro?
-
This plugin works with the standard Action Scheduler that comes with WooCommerce. Compatibility with Action Scheduler Pro has not been tested.
-
Why does the plugin deactivate itself?
-
This is a safety feature. Since this is a powerful database cleanup tool, it’s designed for one-time use to prevent accidental repeated cleanups.
