Manually enter your database settings below or select one of the options below to assist you. The cPanel Database Wizard allows you to enter your cPanel credentials to create a database & auto-fill its settings below. The cPanel Tutorial button shows you the simplest way to manually create a database. See your host's documentation for non-cPanel hosting. If you are restoring a site back to its original location (for instance after being hacked) you may retain the same database settings by clicking the appropriate "copy" links between settings below.

	Old Database	→	New Database
Database Server (MySQL) <%= tip( 'This is the address to the mySQL server where your database will be stored. 99% of the time this is localhost. The location of your mySQL server will be provided to you by your host if it differs.' ) %>		→
Database Name <%= tip( 'This is the name of the database you want to import your blog into. The database user must have permissions to be able to access this database. If you are migrating this blog to a new host you will need to create this database (ie using CPanel or phpmyadmin) and create a mysql database user with permissions.' ) %>		→
Database User <%= tip( 'This is the database user account that has permission to access the database name in the input above. This user must be given permission to this database for the import to work.' ) %>		→
Database Password <%= tip( 'This is the password for the database user.' ) %>		→
Database Prefix <%= tip( 'This is the prefix given to all tables in the database. If you are cloning the site on the same server AND the same database name then you will want to change this or else the imported database will overwrite the existing tables. This should NOT include more than one underscore. Example 1: wp_, Example 2: wp4_, Example 3: dustinsblog_' ) %>		→

<% if ( false === restoreDatabase ) { %>

Database will not be restored from the backup based on your selection on Step 1.

New database username <%= tip( '[Ex: bob] The username you want to add to grant access to this database you want to create. Note: cPanel automatically prefixes database usernames with the cPanel account username and an underscore. ex if your cPanel username is "buddy": buddy_bob' ) %>
