What you will need
Before using Adminer, you will need to know the following database details:
- Hosting server name (How to determine server name)
- Database Name
- Database username and password. These are not the same as your account or Hosting Control Panel details.
Please note: We (Calzada Media) does not store or record authentication details unless the database is covered by an ongoing maintenance program. If you are unsure of any credentials, they may be changed via the Hosting Control Panel.
