Can I change the membership table name prefix in ASP.NET MVC 4?

Question

I am building an ASP.NET MVC 4 website, and with the default project template, it automatically generates some tables in my membership database. For instance:

• webpages_Membership
• webpages_Roles

and etc.

Since I may need to use the same database for several websites, I would like to replace the prefix "webpages_" with something specific for this website, but I cannot find where this is configured. How can I change this in ASP.NET MVC 4?

No, not at all. Table names are hardcoded in SimpleMembershipProvider.

You can find the source, change the names and use your version if you want. The source is here:
