Support for common user tables between sites

    I notice that you create a table wp_umm_usermeta_backup in the plugin. What is it exactly that this table is used for, and under what circumstances? The concern is that I have some sites that share user tables between sites using the CUSTOM_USER_TABLE and CUSTOM_USER_META_TABLE definitions in wp-config.php in WordPress, and thus also use shared user metadata. The other wordpress tables use a different prefix for each site. This is set up to allow for common login registration/profile information across sites. The concern is whether or not this plugin may stomp on metadata changes made across the sites from this table if it generates a separate table for each site.

    User Meta Manager creates a backup copy of the {prefix}usermeta table named {prefix}umm_usermeta_backup. This allows the admin to restore the {prefix}usermeta table from User Meta Manager’s Backup/Restore panel. That’s all it is used for.
