 * Thanks for this handy plugin! I tested it on a new WordPress site, and it does
   everything that this article says it should:

 * I’m very happy to add this plugin to my admin toolkit.
 * Thanks again,

 * Actually, there is one thing the plugin doesn’t do: it doesn’t change the database
   prefix in the `wp-config.php` file. The user has to do that manually, but that’s
   the easiest part of the whole process. The plugin does the hard part, which is
   updating the database everywhere it needs to be changed.
