I’m experiencing an issue with transients in my WooCommerce store. I noticed that certain transients, such as _transient_wc_ptk_patterns, keep regenerating even after I set their autoload value to “no” in phpMyAdmin.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

• Manually setting autoload to “no” in wp_options.
• Clearing transients via WooCommerce > Status > Tools.
• Running the SQL query: sqlCopierModifierDELETE FROM wp_options WHERE option_name LIKE '_transient_%'; But the transients keep coming back.

I’m concerned that this might be affecting performance since my site health is indicating a critical autoload error telling me that I have 1041 autoloaded options (size: 911 KB). Is there a way to prevent WooCommerce from recreating these transients or manage them properly?

Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

However, there are a number of autoloaded options on the site (e.g. elementor_pro_remote_info_api_data_3.2.1) that all seem to relate to the Elementor page builder, which I stopped using 3 years ago. I would like to disable autoloading of these options as they account for about 250Kb of data. However, when I try to do this from Tools->Site Health, the response is “The option does not exist” and the option is not removed.

Can anyone suggest how to disable these options?

Thanks.

1. As reported by a separate plugin (AutoLoad Checker)  the 2 largest autoloaded options are  “_transient_dirsize_cache” and “_transient_new_user_approve_user_statuses”, so I would like to switch these to Autoload = no first and see whether any issues result before deleting them (I am not using the New user Approve plugin any more).  However, these options do not appear under the Options tab of the Advanced Database Cleaner plugin. Is there a reason for this?
2. A large number of the options appearing under the Options tab of the Advanced Database Cleaner plugin e.g. “elementor_pro_remote_info_api_data_3.2.1” relate to Elementor, which I stopped using 3 years ago. I would like to switch the Autoload to “no” for these options, but when I try to do so, it flips back to “yes”. Can you explain why this is so and how to resolve this issue?

Thanks,

My web host said that I’m getting a massive problems with autoloads from the plugin and suggested I reach out for assistance. Here is a screenshot of the issue. Thank you.

My site has a large number of autoloads and it appears that some of the largest ones are coming from the gallery per my web host provider:

The high number and large size of autoloaded options in your WordPress database can significantly slow down your site. Here are the largest autoloaded options in your application:

Is it possible to provide me with some methods to fix the issue on my end? Thank you.

On LiteSpeed caching plugin’s database details shows ‘timetable_google_fonts’ option being significantly bigger than all other options (see the attached screenshot).

Timetable plugin is set to use the ‘Developer Mode’. Could you suggest something to fix this issue as this is something we’ve not seen before on any of our sites?

Thanks and regards,

In a recent database audit our developer noticed that there are many autoloaded options from your plugin. Such as ‘woosw_list_HI2MOD’ and the biggest is 163.84 KB and others are at least 60 KB. We have concerns how this is affecting performance.

Why are these autoloaded? Would it be possible to not have them autoloaded, especially when the wishlist functionality is disabled for “unauthenticated users”?
