Updated on 4 November 20261 min read

Most websites (WordPress, web shops) store their content in a MySQL/MariaDB database.

Here's how

  1. Go to Databases and click Add Database.
  2. Give the database a name and choose the domain.
  3. Create a database user with a strong password right away.
  4. Click OK. Note down the name, user and password for configuring your site.

The database server for your site is localhost.
