    Why does the woocommerce statusreport shows the websites database prefix? I dont see the use of it.
    It should be concidered a safety risk showing it and pasting it on a forum. Specially because there is no use at all displaying it in a statusreport.

    Please take it out of the report

  • Hi @vanvlietwebdesign

    Thanks for reaching out!

    This is the default behavior of the System Status Report. You can opt to redact this information when pasting the SSR here in the forums.

    Hope this helps!

    Thats not really an anwser on the questions. I will rephrase it.

    1)does woocommerce think showing the prefix is a Security risk?

    2) what is the use of it being in the rapport? Can you explain me why you need this specific prefix for support?

    If the first one is yes, and you don’t have an answer on the second. Then concidering changing it looks like a good idea.

    it’s ok, we all make mistakes.
