  2. Select or search for a domain name in the Hosting Services tab.
  3. Click Manage Services on the left-hand menu.

    • For WordPress please edit wp-config.php
    • For Joomla please edit configuration.php
    • For Drupal please edit sites/default/settings.php
    • For Magento please edit app/etc/local.xml
  6. Click on Edit in the side menu.
  7. Search for ‘DB_NAME’. The name of the database will be to the right of ‘DB_NAME’.
  8. Also search for ‘DB_HOST’ to confirm the name of the database server your database is hosted on. The name of the database server will be to the right of ‘DB_HOST’.

Step 2: Find your database in Manage MySQL

  1. Once you’ve made a note of the name of your database and database hostname, select Manage MySQL under Databases
  2. Your databases will be visible.
  3. If you have two databases with the same name, check the database hostname in brackets to confirm which of the two databases your website is connected to.
