2) Create WordPress Username and Database
Create a database for WordPress on your Web Server and a MySQL user with all privileges (access and modify) using your hosting provider’s service (cPanel) or your own Web Server (using phpMyAdmin)
Using hosting provider’s service -> cPanel
• Login to your website and go to Control Panel (cPanel) and under the Database section click on MySQL Database Wizard icon.
• Give a name to your database. E.g. demo (this name would be preceded by your hosting account name e.g. myname_demo)
• Create a username and password for the database user e.g. jeff (again this would be preceded by your hosting account name e.g. myname_jeff). Make sure to provide a strong password.
• Add the user to database and assign privileges. Check the All Privileges checkbox.
• Success message is shown, “User myname_jeff was added to database myname_demo”
• Remember username, database name, hostname and password.
Using your own Web Server -> phpMyAdmin
• In your web server’s phpMyAdmin, create a new Database by entering Database name and clicking on Create. E.g. demo
• Go to Home page (upper left) and click on Add a new User. Select ‘Use Text Field’ from the
dropdown list and enter a username and a strong password. Leave all options under Global privileges with their default values.
