Este plugin **no se ha probado con las últimas 3 versiones mayores de WordPress**.
Puede que ya no tenga soporte ni lo mantenga nadie, o puede que tenga problemas 
de compatibilidad cuando se usa con las versiones más recientes de WordPress.

## Descripción

This plugin adds an improved database layer to WordPress. It allows you to do more
then the default one and is always up-to-date with the changes core makes.

**mysql_\* functions**

The mysql_* functions are officially deprecated for PHP 5.5 and are throwing E_DEPRECATED
errors.
 On https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/21663 there is discussion on 
this topic.

This plugin reflects those discussions.

**Why should I use this plugin?**

You should use this plugin if you want to start using PDO / MySQLi for WordPress.

## Capturas

 * [[
 * The main settings page reports on what database drivers your PHP installation
   supports and lets you enable or disable the custom db.php drop-in for this plugin.

## Instalación

 1. Verify that you have PDO or MySQLi
 2. Go to the settings page to install db.php or copy `wp-content/db.php` to your WordPress
    content directory (`wp-content/` by default.
 3. Done!

## Preguntas frecuentes

  Help, I’ve broken my site!

You can visit [http://yoursite.com/?wp-db-driver-emergency-override=1](http://yoursite.com/?wp-db-driver-emergency-override=1)(
replace yoursite.com with your real WordPress blog address) to temporarily disable
this plugin.
 Then you can login to your admin to deactivate the plugin and restore
your site’s functionality.

If you need to uninstall manually, you should remove the plugin folder as well as`
wp-content/db.php`.

  In what order are the drivers picked?

PDO > MySQLi > MySQL

  How do I specify a driver?

In your wp-config.php, add a new constant:

    ```
    define( 'WPDB_DRIVER', 'wpdb_driver_pdo_mysql' );
    ```

You can specify `wpdb_driver_pdo_mysql`, `wpdb_driver_mysqli`, or `wpdb_driver_mysql`.
Any other driver will cause an error.

  Which driver is best for my site?

They should all function equally well for WordPress. The MySQL extension is being
retired. In PHP 5.5, using this extension issues E_DEPRECATED errors.
 In PHP 5.6,
it will no longer be available. The two alternative drivers are PDO and MySQLi. 
If WordPress switches to MySQLi or PDO, some cool new features become available 
to developers.

  How to configure SSL?

You can set defined in your wp-config.php to make it work. This only works for MySQLi
and PDO.
 These defines are: DB_SSL_KEY, DB_SSL_CERT, DB_SSL_CA, DB_SSL_CA_PATH 
and DB_SSL_CIPHER.

In case of a different port number then you can pass this to your database host 
like: 127.0.0.1:
