phpMyAdmin
Discover what phpMyAdmin is, what it’s useful for and the reasons why you will be needing it for your websites.
phpMyAdmin is a feature-rich tool coded in PHP, which shall provide you with total control of a MySQL database. You may do absolutely everything - create fields, rows and tables, erase them or change their data, export or import an entire database or only a particular part of it, and execute MySQL commands. The tool is essential when you want to switch hosting providers, as you can very easily generate a full backup of a database in a number of formats (SQL, CSV, XML). You'll end up with only one file that contains the entire content of the database, so you may download it from the current provider, upload it to the hosting server of the new one and import it through the same tool on their end. Your website will look exactly the same, because all script apps store their data within a database. With phpMyAdmin you could also effortlessly search and replace information of your choice across the whole website - a word, an expression or a link, for example.

phpMyAdmin in Shared Website Hosting
You'll be able to use phpMyAdmin to access any database you set up in a
shared website hosting account bought from our company because we supply the tool by default with all of our packages. Once you sign in to your Hepsia hosting Control Panel and create a new database in the MySQL Databases section, a small phpMyAdmin icon will appear on its right-hand side. What it takes to log in immediately is to click on that icon and the tool will open in a new browser tab, so you can handle the database data. That is also how you can import a database if you're moving your site from another provider to our sophisticated cloud hosting platform. A different way to log in to a database is if you use our direct phpMyAdmin login URL, but you need to know the DB account info. This option will enable you to provide access to any database to other people, without granting them access to the entire hosting account.

phpMyAdmin in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you host a script-driven site in a
semi-dedicated server account from our company, you shall be able to administer the website database manually with ease since you can sign in to phpMyAdmin directly from your website hosting CP. Any MySQL database that you set up will be listed in the Databases section of your account and it shall have a phpMyAdmin icon on its right side. Accessing the tool for a specific database is as simple as clicking on that icon and our system will open a new tab inside your web browser and it shall log you in automatically, to permit you to export/import or modify any content that you would like. We also provide the option to log in directly to phpMyAdmin without going through your Control Panel. In this situation, the login is manual and requires a username and a password. This feature will permit you to grant access to a specific database to other individuals without giving them access to your website hosting account.
