## Description

LightMoving InnoDB Converter helps modernize older WordPress databases that still
contain tables using MyISAM or other legacy storage engines.

The plugin scans your WordPress database tables, identifies tables that are not 
using InnoDB, and provides a safe administrator-controlled bulk conversion workflow.

Features include:

 * WordPress table engine scan
 * Bulk conversion to InnoDB
 * Selected-table conversion controls
 * Backup confirmation workflow
 * Required CONVERT confirmation step
 * Table row and size display
 * Clean conversion success logging
 * Responsive modern admin interface
 * Direct Tools link from the Plugins page
 * No automatic conversion on activation

### Safety Features

 * No automatic conversion on plugin activation
 * Administrator-only access
 * Backup confirmation checkbox
 * Required CONVERT confirmation text
 * Converts only selected tables using the active WordPress table prefix
 * Displays current table engine, row count, and size
 * Allows deselecting tables before conversion

### Important

Always create a complete database backup before converting database tables.

Large tables may require additional time depending on hosting resources. Conversion
operations may temporarily lock tables while MySQL or MariaDB processes ALTER TABLE
operations.
