This plugin does not respect the $table_prefix setting in wp-config.php. Instead, it creates a table with the invariant name ahm_files.

As a result, you’ll get this:
* Two WP sites using the same MySQL database will get each other’s data
* All sites within a WPMU install will get the same data
* Backup tools won’t recognise this plugin’s data as belonging to WordPress, and hence won’t back it up.

It seems that others have already hit these problems:

This is a very serious problem and ought to be fixed as soon as possible.

Thank you for your response. Do you have a timeline for version 2.6?
