Plugin activation generates WP database errors if table prefix is not “wp_”

Hi,

I am experiencing an issue with the uncanny-automator plugin version 6.0. After installing and activating the plugin using WP-CLI, I receive multiple WordPress database errors in the php_errorlog . This issue occurs on a fresh WP install when the WordPress table prefix is set different to “wp_” (for example $table_prefix = ‘ovm_’; ).

Here is the command I used to activate the plugin:

$ wp plugin activate uncanny-automator
Plugin 'uncanny-automator' activated.
Success: Activated 1 of 1 plugins.

However, this results in numerous errors of the following type in the php_errorlog:

[25-Oct-2024 07:36:47 UTC] WordPress database error Table 'db9df9wbodib9i.ovm_uap_options' doesn't exist for query SELECT option_value FROM ovm_uap_options WHERE option_name = 'automator_settings_debug_notices_enabled' LIMIT 1 made by include('/usr/local/wp-cli/vendor/wp-cli/wp-cli/php/wp-cli.php'), WP_CLI\bootstrap, WP_CLI\Bootstrap\LaunchRunner->process, WP_CLI\Runner->start, WP_CLI\Runner->run_command_and_exit, WP_CLI\Runner->run_command, WP_CLI\Dispatcher\Subcommand->invoke, call_user_func, WP_CLI\Dispatcher\CommandFactory::WP_CLI\Dispatcher\{closure}, call_user_func, Plugin_Command->activate, activate_plugin, plugin_sandbox_scrape, include_once('/plugins/uncanny-automator/uncanny-automator.php'), require('/plugins/uncanny-automator/src/globals.php'), automator_get_option

...

(The full error log contains multiple entries similar to the one above, all referencing the ovm_uap_options table, which doesn’t exist.)

Upon investigation, I found that this issue seems to affect every WordPress installation that doesn’t use “wp_” as the table prefix. The plugin appears to be hardcoded to expect this default prefix, which causes issues when a different prefix is used.

For reference, I looked into this file, and it seems the problem is consistent across non-default table prefixes.

Could the developers please look into this issue? It would be great if the plugin could handle custom table prefixes correctly.

Thank you!
