Adding Users to a Database Print this Article
There may be times when you want to have more than one login name and password assigned to a database. To add additional users to a database, follow these steps:
1. From the main database menu, click on the name of the database you want to modify.
2. Click on the "Create New Database User" link at the top of the screen.
3. Enter a username and password and then click the "Create" button.
You can see how many users each database has from the main MySQL databases menu.
Removing Users from a Database
To remove database users, first click on the database name from the main MySQL databases menu. In this example we have clicked on the "username_chat" database, which has two users (see above picture).
The username_chat database has two users: username_chat (the username is the same as the database name) and username_gary2. To delete the database user, simply check the box next to its name and click the "Delete Selected" button.
