Changing DB Prefix breaks plugin

    Hello,

    I have been using ITRO for a few days now and it was working great. I installed Better WP Security in order to work on the security of my website, and it broke the ITRO plugin. After doing some digging, I came to the conclusion that changing my Database prefix to anything other than wp_ causes the plugin to stop displaying or allowing any changes to data.

    For now, i located the two itro tables in phpmyadmin and changed those prefixes back to wp_. Everything is functioning good now. You might want to research why this happening and update the plugin, since it is recommended for security that the database prefix be changed.
