 * I love this plugin! It does everything it should do to the database to change
   the table prefix. The only thing it doesn’t do is update the table prefix in 
   the `wp-config.php` file. Would it be possible to add this feature to the plugin?
 * Thanks for considering it,

 * When I changed the prefix, the plugin said it changed the wp-config file successfully,
   but that was not the case. Might have been a file permission, but than I would’ve
   expected an error message.
 * For the rest, great plugin.

 * Yup. Same issue with updating `wp-config.php`. Otherwise, works.
