I’m attempting to understand mySQL databases and have created one on my GoDaddy account

  • 0

I’m attempting to understand mySQL databases and have created one on my GoDaddy account in ordered to run a WordPress blog through my FTP.

I’ve already built a site though so I’ve put all of the WP files into a folder in my FTP (not in the root). It’s not finding the database now and I’m assuming it’s because the WP info isn’t in the root folder. I’m trying not to put it in the root folder for organizational purposes since there are already a bunch of files.

Here’s an example of where the install file is for WordPress:

http://www.mydomain.com/blog/wp-admin/install.php

Can anyone point me in the right direction so I can understand what I’m doing wrong? Thanks.

    Your WP database was preconfigured and set up after you installed the addon.

    You will find your dataase in your phpMyAdmin portal found through the “Databases” tab in your GodDaddy hosting account.

    You can not access your database through an FTP client.
