Helpful when running dated WordPress sites
I was restoring an old WordPress site (v3.7.1) that I haven't touched in over 3 years that on my WAMP server. Even though this plugin hasn't been updated for just as long, it was helpful in fixing the depreciation notices that I was getting for mysqli, thank you.
