## Description

This addon requires [WP Migrate DB Pro](https://deliciousbrains.com/wp-migrate-db-pro)
or [WP Migrate DB](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-migrate-db/).

Ensure no user personal data is included when a database is exported, pulled or 
pushed using [WP Migrate DB](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-migrate-db/) (export)
or [WP Migrate DB Pro](https://deliciousbrains.com/wp-migrate-db-pro) (export, pull,
push).

When the plugin is activated it will anonymize by default. You will need to deactivate
the plugin to turn it off.

User data is anonymized and includes data from the following tables:

 * users
 * usermeta
 * comments

Supported plugins:

 * WooCommerce

To preserve specific rows in the users table, use the `WPMDB_ANONYMIZATION_USER_LOGIN_WHITELIST`
constant to set a whitelist of comma separated user logins.

To replace all passwords with a hashed default password, set the password using 
the `WPMDB_ANONYMIZATION_DEFAULT_PASSWORD` constant.

The configuration rules can be extended with a filter. [Learn how](https://github.com/deliciousbrains/wp-migrate-db-anonymization#extending).
