pinkrockett Posted January 21, 2004 Share Posted January 21, 2004 How do I edit the tables in mysql? I already cleared the "category" table, but I can't find where you edit it and put in your own information. I want to "dump" a lot of information into the tables but i cant figure out how to do that.

djs Posted January 21, 2004 Share Posted January 21, 2004 Are you asking how to edit a mysql database directly? Outside of osCommerce? If so, you're host should have provided you with a method to do this, probably phpmyadmin, which lets you log into your database and have full control, from adding records, tables, and dumping the data and starting over. phpMyAdmin is pretty simple to use, but the very first thing you want to learn to do is create a full backup of the database (dump file). This will protect you when you hit the wrong button and wipe everything out ; ) The second thing you want to learn is how to restore the dump file. You can actually install phpMyAdmin and mySql locally to learn how to do all of this. Dan Stevens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkrockett Posted January 21, 2004 Author Share Posted January 21, 2004 Yes, I went to myphp in my control panel. I see where you can export the tables, but I can't figure out where you edit them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
