I’ll update those tooltips to be more clear about the ACT use case.
Basically, you want to watch metadata calls if ALL of these are the case:
- You have custom post types/taxonomies, or you have extended post types/taxonomies/media/comments/users
- You use table-based storage for any of those content types
- You have any plugins that need access to your meta for read/update
If you only have Advanced Content Types or if your custom code or the Pods API are the only interface you use for those fields — you can safely turn it off.
