MySQL commands to speed up your WordPress database

phpMyAdmin is the most common way to manage a WordPress database. It is important to backup and save a copy of your .sql database file before you proceed with any of these commands.

To use phpMyAdmin follow the steps below:

  1. Login to phpMyAdmin panel and select your WordPress database.
  2. Click on the SQL tab which will bring you to a page with a SQL query box.
Deleting all posts from the WordPress database.
DELETE
FROM wp_posts
WHERE post_type = 'revision';
Spam comments can also be deleted using the following SQL command.

DELETE FROM wp_comments WHERE comment_approved = 'spam'>
All comments awaiting approval can be deleted by using the following SQL command.

DELETE FROM wp_comments WHERE comment_approved = '0'

Even after you have removed a plugin, there is data still left inside the post_meta table which is no longer needed. Run the following query to clean this up.
delete from="" wp_postmeta="" where="" meta_key="your-meta-key" ;
After many edits to a post or page, the amount of stored revision can really start to add up. Use this command to delete all revisions.

DELETE
FROM wp_posts
WHERE post_type = 'revision';
