  • Supper easy to rename table prefix. :D

    This plugin makes renaming the WordPress Database table prefixes hassle-free.

  • Clean and fast

    It does what it says and it does well. The plugin asks you if you have baked up you database and wp-config.php file, which it is a good reminder :) I wouldn't expect less from the authors. Thanks for your work!

  • Does its job

    Good if your wp-config file is writable.

  • Excellent Plugin, Great Time Saver

    I always make a point of changing the default wp_ prefix on new installs for better security and this one time I forgot. D'oh. I was about to do it manually using a text editor and phpMyAdmin and thought, 'gee, i wonder if there's a plugin that could make quick work of this'? I saw Delicious Brains associated with this plugin and since I use their awesome Better Search Replace plugin a fair bit, I decided to give it a whirl. Holy crap - what a huge time saver! One click and done (I ran backups first). I checked my wp-config file and the db and everything looks ship-shape. Awesome little plugin. Thanks for sharing! Highly recommended - but back up first!
