I just wanted to ask about the "wipeDataOnNewSave" parameter. Will this just wipe data when we do a wipe? 

it will wipe data on ANY wipe

It actually wont. Every single wipe I had to manually unload remove data and load again.. 
A work around for this is either (https://umod.org/community/zlevels-remastered/31471-wipe-zlevels) or WipeDataCleaner plugin.

That plugin is using the same hook this plugin is using.

You must enable it in the config or it will not work.

I have "wipeDataOnNewSave": true in my config. I know that they use the same hook but something seems to be off.

Every time I change maps, zlevels resets (as intended). Not sure what's going on with your stuff. You could delete the json files for zlevels in the oxide/data folder? You could also run the console commands in-game to reset everyone.
