How can I create a MySQL database for my server?

MySQL databases can be used to store additional data for your server typically required by some plugins. You can create one database in our control panel for each server you have.

  1. Login to the control panel.
  2. Open the side menu for Service Management and go to MySQL Manager as pictured below:

Type in your desired database name. It can be whatever you want since the system will append your control panel username to the prefix. Then click create.

If you click phpMyAdmin, you will be routed to a page where you can type in your database user and password so you can manually manage your database further. This part is for advanced users.
