Database Management in CyberPanel

CyberPanel can create and manage MySQL databases for each website. Database and user names are automatically prefixed with information from the selected domain, as shown in the interface.

Security: use a different strong password for every database user. Do not publish database credentials or store them in a public file.

Step 1: Open Databases & FTP

Sign in to CyberPanel and select Databases & FTP in the left sidebar.

Open Databases & FTP.

Step 2: Open Create Database

Select Create/Delete Database from the data-management hub.

Step 3: Select the website

Choose the website that will own the database.

Select the website for the new database.

Step 4: Enter the database credentials

Enter a database name, database username, and strong password. CyberPanel shows that the final database name and username will be prefixed for organization and isolation. Record the final credentials returned by the panel because applications must use the complete names.

Manage an existing database

Return to Databases & FTP to list or delete databases, open phpMyAdmin, or use MySQL Manager. Export a database before deleting it or making a large schema change.

The same database shortcuts are available from Website Home → Databases. WordPress database details are also available in WordPress Manager → Database.
