Before starting

Create a current database backup before running a schema repair on a production site. The repair is designed to preserve Noptin records, but it changes table structures.

  1. Confirm that you want to run the repair.

Noptin creates missing tables, columns, and indexes and updates incompatible column definitions. It validates the schema again when finished. If anything remains unresolved, the result identifies the remaining differences.
