    After I install a copy of an existing site using Duplicator, what is the most recommend way, with WordPress 4.7+ to change the table prefix of the database?

    I made a bad decision in easily changing the table prefix via phpmyadmin. That led me, as an administrator of my own site, to loose administrative rights to my admin pages. Thankfully I had backed-up my database before attempting this, so I was able to restore it.

    Moving forward, What do the developers of Duplicator recommend? I don’t care if the answer is a tested / approved plugin, or 10 technical steps, I need something.

    Thanks in advance
