PGV_ tables in database was created by UlfG

HI, Many years ago I upgraded from PhpGefView to webtrees.I still have a large number of tables in my database starting with PGV_ in their names. Can I delete these tables?

I'm presuming that you ran the PGV->webtrees migration tool, and created new tables for webtrees. By default, these would start with wt_

If so, then yes you can delete these tables.

Since it was many years, perhaps 10 years or so, since I did the upgrade from PGV to webtrees there is no way I can remember if I ran a specific script or not. However, I do have a some 30 or so tables starting with wt_ in the database.

In that case, yes you can delete all the pgv_ tables.
