orig_ safe to remove tables?

[loccom]

Hi

is it safe to remove the orig_ tables from the database after the upgrade? I noticed it backed up these tables and renamed them which is quite cool as a back up, but now would like to remove them to reduce size of databases.

 

cheers

As long as you made the change to conf_global.php so that your table_prefix value is not the "orig_" tables, then yes, you can remove them.

Be sure to make a full backup of the database first for safety, of course.
