Managing Log Size #
If the log tables are growing very large:
- Reduce log retention days in DDLS > Settings > Update Server (e.g., from 90 to 30)
- The next daily run will trim older records
If you need to immediately reduce table size, you can manually run the cleanup:
wp cron event run dmsilm_us_cleanup_logs
