How to change database prefix

[Sunka]

Is it possible to delete my database prefix?
For now is vb_
But I wanted my database without prefix. Is it possible to somehow delete that?

You can use the install/tableprefix.php script to change your prefixes on the vB table. Just run it from the browser.

Be sure to also make the appropriate change to config.php.

So, steps will be:



Close forum
Point browser to www.myforum/install/tableprefix.php
Change prefix (just want to delete prefix, and have database without prefix at all)
Change database name in config.php

Is that all I have to do? Nothing else after that, or before that?

4. Change prefix in config.php, not database name.

Also I would make a backup of the database first.

Yes, database prefix not database name in config.php
I mean that but write wrong.
OK, I'll try to see what will be.
