Requiring PDO_SQLITE is WRONG !

  • I consider the fact that the coders of this module require the presence of the PDO_SQLITE module on the server, to be wrong.

    Why not simply use the native sqlite module, which is not tied to PDO ?
    What’s wrong with that one ?
    On a regular shared hosting, having PDO_SQLITE turned on can be a PITA, while the “regular” sqlite extension is almost always present, so why not use that one ?

    I’m just sayin…

  • Hi @eragonsoftware. My understanding is that PDO_SQLITE is used in the plugin in order to use SQLite as a drop-in replacement for a MySQL compatible database that WordPress expects using the consistent PDO interface.

    If you are aware of ways to do this without the PDO extension, please feel free to share a suggestion in the GitHub repo where this plugin is developed.
