BryceJr Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Sorry for sounding completely stupid :unsure: , but how do i do this? Login to phpMyAdmin. The top navigation bar you'll see "STRUCTURE", "SQL", "SEARCH", etc. Click SQL, paste that code in the box, and click GO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
