Namecheap DNS Plugin Not Deleting TXT Records

Hello,

The issue I’m experiencing is that the Namecheap DNS-Challenge Plugin is not deleting old TXT recrods, flooding my provider and causing Caddy to timeout when requesting new certs. I went back and fourth if this should be in the Help category or in the Plugins category but I am not sure if the Plugin is responsible for these activities or if Caddy is so please, excuse me if this is in the wrong category and I will update accordingly.

I’m fairly confident this is the issue with renewals or new cert requests because when I manually delete all of the TXT records in Namecheap UI and restart Caddy to initiate the handshakes again, the certs are easily obtained. I have around 10 subdomains so my TXT records build up quickly.

I’m not sure what information would be useful here. I don’t see anything in the logs that hint at Caddy attempting to delete or cleanup the records using the Plugin but, to be fair, I’m not really sure the command I’d be looking for. Any help is greatly appreciated.
