Database errors: Custom table prefixes

[twentwatchers]

Dear Modern Tribe and other readers,

As a WordPress developer I always change my table prefixes.
I don’t use wp_ but instead use something like wprandom_, to ensure a little bit of extra safety from injections etc.

In the case of this plugin however the database prefix is hardcoded in the queries on multiple places. So untill this is fixed; everyone else that experiences this: Change the queries in the plugin (but mind your updates!).

Modern Tribe: please don’t hardcode the prefix in future updates?

Hi.

I ran the same problem and found where it is. It’s located in ‘/events-calendar-pro/events-calendar-pro.php’ and only in 2 places. Everywhere else it’s fine, it’s a “typo” 😉

Hi everyone. It is indeed a typo and one we apologize for – we don’t make a habit of hardcoding table prefixes and this slipped through the net, however we’re quite literally taking corrective action as I type and a fix will be released for this as quickly as possible.

We definitely appreciate that this will have caused unnecessary disruption and, again, we can only apologize – and appreciate your patience while we get on top of this one.
