We endorse this request, in addition to facilitating ease of transfer accommodating plugins such as All-in-one WP Migration and Updraft would permit scheduled backups which in instances of large numbers of products, which are frequently having to be altered, would be a godsend, rather than having to download everything from c-panel.

Renaming EasyCart database tables to standard table prefix to make migration easier
If you use one of the more popular migration plugins such as All-in-One WP Migration, Easycart tables will not be transferred due to table preface check that most of the migration plugins make - they check for the main WP database table prefix and only move the corresponding tables, so people who use a single db for multiple installations don't have a whole caboodle moved to the new database.
Easycart creates table with proprietary prefix ec. The best WP plugin practice is to get the WP installation table prefix from wp-config ($table_prefix variable) and match it, for various reasons such as compatibility with other plugins that one might want to use the Easycart data in and, as above, the migration. I hope you consider making this change at some point in the future.Tags: None
