Change DB Prefix WordPress Plugin - Secure Your WordPress MySQL Database | WP Learning Lab

In this tutorial I'm going to show you how to use the Change DB Prefix WordPress plugin to improve MySQL database security.

Anyone running a WordPress-based website needs to consider database security very seriously. WordPress database protection is built right into the software, but it's not turned on by default.

Before you first install WordPress you can change the database prefix from "wp_" to something harder to guess inside the wp-config.php file. Once WordPress is installed however, you will have to use the Change DB Prefix plugin to make that change.

This change will go a long way towards WordPress hack prevention and WordPress better data security.

Once you install the Change DB Prefix plugin, go to its settings page. The current database prefix will be pre-filled and all you have to do is enter the new database prefix that you want to use.

When you click on Save Changes the plugin will change the database prefixes inside your MySQL database and make all necessary adjustments.

The catch is that you can only do this once. So make sure you choose a WordPress database prefix that you are happy with. After you've done that WordPress change prefix your database will be much more protected.

I hope this information helps you! If you have any questions leave a comment below or ping me @WPLearningLab on Twitter.
