How does Updraft Handle DB Prefix changes

[tfanelliParticipant]

Hello!
This might be available, but after searching a good bit I have not found an answer.
I have gotten inconsistent results migrating sites where there is a change in the DB prefix. I like to have everyone use wp_ the standard and I migrate many sites that have different prefixes. In some cases it works but in other cases, the wp_capabilities field in wp_usermeta does not get changed and users cannot access to the back end and I am left with manually fixing. I just want to know how Updraft is supposed to work so I can build a process around what to expect.

Thanks for your insights!
Tom

Hi Tom,

That should not be a problem as UpdraftPlus, both the free and Premium versions, will work with any WordPress table prefix.
