This is a simple component to let you change your Joomla Database Table Prefix. Changing your table prefix is good for security and also allows you to run multiple Joomla installations from one database. * Change database table prefix ( e.g jos_ to xyz_ ) * Comprehensive validation for safe and secure renaming. * Only the table prefix is changed. * No downtime. Change prefix easily and instantly from your Joomla Admin area. * Updates Joomla configuration file. * Optional read-only protection for config file. It is simple, pure PHP code, no new tables are created. The script loops through your Joomla database and performs a search and replace on your chosen database prefix. If the search prefix doesn't exist in a table name, it is skipped and the original table name is preserved. If, by chance, the search prefix exists twice in a table name, it is only replaced once (from the left, i.e table prefix only). The changes are virtually instantaneous and the new prefix is updated in your Joomla configuration file. So basically, you just update the prefix and carry on! A piece of cake :-) As requested, you can now also change other table prefixes for other installations from the same interface. If this extension helps you out, please give it a rating or a review. Thanks! Update: I have setup a new support forum at : http://joomla.daveslist.co.nz/forum Please direct support questions there. DT
