Question

I have a domain, for which I got a website created by someone. They have used MySQL as the DB, but did not do a good job of documenting this and now it is a total mess where I do not know how the DB Tables connect to each other (there are still only 73 tables in 2 DB’s).

I have the option of downloading all the table schemas into SQL statements, Excel, etc., but wish to figure out a way to create a ER diagram from the DB Tables on the site itself, so I can replicate it later.

Is there a way to get the ER diagram from the tables on the site itself? If not, which is the best way to convert the SQL Schema into an ER Diagram?
