New Features, Improvements, Bug Fixes

Improvements
  • Message to remind the user they can't connect to a local install from a remote install
  • Message to warn the user that the table prefixes differ between installs and instructions to remedy that issue
  • Automatically detect when OpenSSL is disabled and remove 's' from 'https'
