Creating a MySQL Database with Site5

Creating your MySQL database if you’re using the site5 hosting system is simple. Log into Backstage (the site5 control panel), click on the Site Admin tab, then click on your site domain name. You’ll see the main SiteAdmin screen, which looks like this:


In the left hand navigation area, click on MySQL Databases and you’ll see three options:
manage databases, manage users, or php MyAdmin. Choose the first of those, and the following screen will appear:


To create the new database, just type a name into the box and click the button. As with most other hosting companies, site5 will add a prefix to your database. As can be seen in the above illustration, creating a database called hms will actually result in one called foodarco_hms.
Take note of the link to phpMyAdmin. We’ll be using this shortly to add some tables and data to our new database.
