 * Hello, I’m using HappenStance Premium 2.0.2. and we’re moving our site to a new
   hosting provider.
 * However we’re receiving the following message:
    Tablestructure for table wp_bwg_theme#
   1118 – Row size too large (> 8126). Changing some columns to TEXT or BLOB may
   help. In current row format, BLOB prefix of 0 bytes is stored inline.
 * Any idea how to fix this issue?
    Please help!
 * Thank you!

 * Hi,
 * this issue is most probably related to a third-party plugin called [Photo Gallery](https://wordpress.org/plugins/photo-gallery/),
   because this plugin creates a table named “wp_bwg_theme”. Please check [this support topic](https://web-dorado.com/forum/photo-gallery/11797-wp-bwg-theme-table-on-mysql.html)
   where could be useful information about this problem.

 * Hello,
    Thank you for your reply! I don’t have the plugin Photo Gallery installed.
   So I don’t think that’s the case. Any other ideas?

 * Hi Jeroen,
 * if possible, please post here a link to your website so I could check it. The
   table “wp_bwg_theme” is not a default WordPress table and the HappenStance theme
   does not create any custom tables in the database, so it is most probably related
   to a plugin. Please try to deactivate all installed plugins (one after another)
   to detect which one might cause the problem.
 * Best regards,
    Tomas Toman

 * Indeed it was created by the plugin Photo Gallery, I de-installed it earlier 
   and somehow this table wasn’t cleaned up. Thank you.
