Plugin Description
SweepPress is an easy-to-use plugin for WordPress, built around 27 different Sweepers for database cleanup, support for WP-CLI, and WP REST API to perform the cleanup operations.
The plugin has several modes of sweeping:
* Auto Sweep: available on the dashboard, running many (not all) sweepers without user input.
* Quick Sweep: available on the dashboard, allowing selection of the sweepers to run.
* Full Sweep: available on own panel, with detailed information about sweepers and no limit run.
All sweepers use optimized SQL queries to find the data for removal, and the removal is also done using SQL queries. This is the fastest and most efficient way for data removal, allowing for the quick removal of a large amount of data.

WP CLI and WP REST API Support
The plugin registers new CLI commands for running sweep operations from the command line (WP CLI is required). And, the plugin also registers the REST API endpoint for the same purpose to run remote sweep operations (only for administrator role!). CLI and REST API support can be enabled through plugin settings.
SweepPress Pro
SweepPress Lite edition available on WordPress.org is a fully functional plugin, and there are no limits to its operations. But, SweepPress Pro contains some additional features not available in the Lite version:
- Create and manage Sweeper Jobs: create custom sweeper jobs to run at a specific date, or as a recurring job.
- Control and track WordPress CRON jobs: list all the WordPress CRON jobs, track and display the source, and more.
More exclusive Pro features will be coming with the future updates. Upgrade to SweepPress Pro.
Special Notice
The plugin will show the backup reminder notice by default (and it can be disabled) on every plugin page. It is essential to understand that once the data is deleted by the plugin, it can’t be restored. So, if you change your mind later, it is important to make the backup before the data removal. SweepPress plugin is not responsible for any loss of data – make sure to have backups!
