NavoCloud | Guide - Setting Up phpMyAdmin

Setting Up phpMyAdmin

This guide will help you set up phpMyAdmin on your server. phpMyAdmin provides a user-friendly interface to manage your databases efficiently. Let's get started!

Step 1: Open phpMyAdmin

To begin, access the phpMyAdmin setup by going to navocloud.com/pma.

Step 2: Log in to phpMyAdmin

Enter your MySQL database username and password. This is usually the same as your server's database credentials.

Step 3: Explore the phpMyAdmin Interface

Once logged in, you’ll see a dashboard with a list of databases on the left. Familiarize yourself with the interface, as this is where you’ll manage your databases.

Step 4: Create a Database (Optional)

To create a new database, go to the "Databases" tab at the top. Enter the database name and select the collation (e.g., utf8_general_ci for general use) before clicking “Create.”

Step 5: Manage Tables and Entries

To manage tables, select a database and navigate through the options (e.g., "Structure," "Insert," "Export") to manage your data. You can add, edit, or delete entries directly from the interface.

Step 6: Secure phpMyAdmin

For security, make sure to keep your phpMyAdmin login credentials safe. Consider setting up IP restrictions or using SSL for added security on your server.

You’ve successfully set up phpMyAdmin! Now you can manage your databases with ease. For more complex operations, refer to the phpMyAdmin documentation.
