    Tobias,

    Could you update the Migration guide document on #6 to clearly state wither or not if a user deletes all of WP-Tables Reloaded content after an import of data to TablePress that the content will or will not be deleted from the database. What is specifically unclear is if TablePress is referencing WP-Tables’s tables in the DB or if it has copied and created its own tables. I suspect the later is true but it is a bit unclear at the moment.

    #6 currently Reads:

    Once you are satisfied, you should deactivate WP-Table Reloaded. However, before you do that, make sure that the “Remove upon Deactivation” checkbox on the “Plugin Options” screen of WP-Table Reloaded is NOT checked (unless you really want to remove all WP-Table Reloaded tables from the database). If you want to remove everything, you can also click the “Uninstall” button there. (Note that you can always get everything back from the “WP-Table Reloaded Dump File” that you created as a backup in step 1, in case you ever change your mind.)

    Thanks, for a great plugin! Fröhliche Weihnachten und ein glückliches neues Jahr!

    Hello Hugh,

    thanks for your feedback on this, I really appreciate it!
    Yes, that paragraph is indeed written in a complicated way, and I will definitely try to make it more clear. Thanks for your input on this!

    (And to hopefully clarify on your question: TablePress is completely independent from WP-Table Reloaded. It only reads the the WP-Table Reloaded tables from the database and stores them in its own location. Therefore, after the successful migration, everything that’s related to WP-Table Reloaded can be deleted from the database.)

    Best wishes and Happy Holidays to you as well!
    Tobias
