Hello, I’ve decided to migrate away from ACF on one of my sites for a few reasons. How can I completely delete all ACF data, and values saved to posts etc?
It would not be an easy process, and you’d need to work directly with the db.
The first step would be to search the meta_value column of the db in the _termmeta, _postmeta, _usermeta and _commentmeta tables looking for any values that starts with “field_%”. You would also need to search for the same thing in the option_value column of the _options table. These are the field key references.
The meta_key value will look something like “_some_field_name”. If you remove the initial underscore you will have the meta_key where the actual field value is stored.
All of these would need to be deleted.
