Hello everyone,
While trying to clean-up my database, I notice I have the following tables that I’m not sure what they are related to. From a few Google searches, it seemes they are related to an internal-search related plugin that was used in the past, but I’m afraid to drop the table in case it’s something that WordPress is using.
* wpftsi\_vectors
* wpftsi\_rawcache
* wpftsi\_docs
* wpftsi\_ilog
* wpftsi\_index
* wpftsi\_tp
* wpftsi\_words
* wpftsi\_qlog
* wpftsi\_map
and a few other similar ones.
I wouldn’t care if other plugins are using this, I would remove them too, I just want to know if this is something that WP needs by default.
Many thanks!

From what you’ve described and a bit of Googling, it seems like those tables are indeed related to a past internal-search plugin you used. However, before you go dropping them, let’s tread cautiously.
Here’s a unique approach: Instead of immediately deleting them, why not try disabling the plugin first (if it’s not already) and see if anything breaks on your site? This way, you can gauge whether those tables are still actively used by WordPress or any other plugins.
If everything seems to be running smoothly without those tables, then it’s probably safe to go ahead and drop them. Just be sure to take a backup of your database beforehand, just in case anything unexpected happens.
And hey, if you’re still unsure, you could always reach out to the plugin’s support team or consult with a WordPress expert(well in that case we can help you) for some peace of mind.
