SUMMARY

• Total unused tables: 13 (94 columns)
• Total unused columns in active tables: 44 columns
• Grand total unused: 138 columns across all tables

Key Findings:

1. Migration Fields: 24 columns starting with old_ are legacy migration fields that can be safely removed
2. Soft Deletes: deleted_at columns in media and messages are defined but soft delete is not implemented
3. Multi-language Support: comments_content, posts_content, and groups_content tables suggest a multi-language system that was never used (current implementation stores content directly in main tables)
4. Deprecated Features: Entire feature sets appear unused (events, wiki, business listings, location data, email bounce tracking)

Safe to Remove:

All old_* migration columns can be safely dropped as they were only used for data migration from a previous system.

Make comments of deleted user as null to keep parentId

-- Re-add foreign key with SET NULL on delete
ALTER TABLE `comments`
ADD CONSTRAINT `comments_user_id_users_id_fk`
FOREIGN KEY (`user_id`) REFERENCES `users` (`id`)
ON DELETE SET NULL
ON UPDATE CASCADE;

But hide on serverside the comment?

Only thing left is media.filepath that is model but not used anywhere. Legacy from drupal site.

Looks like it's still used by MailServer
