Creating a new database

Post by jakariabd »

The next step is to create a database for the new domain. To do this, go to the hosting control panel and create a new database.

Immediately write down the database name, username and password for yourself - this data will be useful in the subsequent steps.

Now go to phpMyAdmin of the new domain and import the old database that you made changes to. To do this, just click the "Import" button, upload the file from your computer and click "Forward".

Done! The site files and database have been transferred to the new domain.

But the site will not work yet, because the site egypt whatsapp number data settings contain the parameters of the old database. In order to change these parameters, find the configuration file in the root folder of the site and write in it the parameters of the new database that you wrote down when creating it.

For example, if you have a WordPress site, you will need the wp-config.php file, which is located in the root folder of the site.

The lines you are interested in here are:

DB_NAME — database name;

DB_USER — user name;

DB_PASSWORD — password;

DB_HOST — the server name (usually it is localhost, but it is better to check with the hosting provider).

Values ​​are entered between the "value" symbols without spaces.

Another point - you need to enter unique keys for authentication. You can simply type gibberish on the keyboard in each line or generate them using a special service.
