Nope, it does not have to be on. That feature is a request I got from one of my users =)
Hi mdeluk,
I don’t how big your site is but my site has about 200k visits a month and the wp_options database table is very often corrupted (it has 200k+ rows, size 21MB, index usage 13MB – highest among all my database tables!) so this may very well be my life saver.
Hi Lester Chan,
How do I ensure that this functions actually works?
As mentioned above, the “wp_options” table has been corrupted a few times recently and caused severe disruption to our site.
When this “wp_options” table is corrupted, the whole site is not accessible as it shows “Error establishing a database connection
“. So, will your script still be able to run then?
Warm regards,
Eric
