Creating and Managing Databases
- In cPanel select the link "MySQL Databases."
- In the "Db:" section specify a name for the database that you are creating (ex: store, forum, etc..). After you have specified the name click "Add Db" and the database will be created.
- In the "Users:" section specify a "Username," & "Password" for the database that you are creating (Note: you may use the same User/Password for all of your Databases).
- At the bottom of the "Databases:" section you will now see "User: (username_yourname)," "Db: (username_databasename)." Select the "User" from the left dropdown menu and "Db" from the right drop-down menu that you want to use. "Click Add User to Db."
After your database is created you can manage it from phpmyadmin. Click on the "phpmyadmin" icon from cPanel to do so.
