<h1>User management<a class="headerlink" href="#user-management" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
|
|
<p>User management is the process of controlling which users are allowed to
|
|
connect to the MySQL server and what permissions they have on each database.
|
|
phpMyAdmin does not handle user management, rather it passes the username and
|
|
password on to MySQL, which then determines whether a user is permitted to
|
|
perform a particular action. Within phpMyAdmin, administrators have full
|
|
control over creating users, viewing and editing privileges for existing users,
|
|
and removing users.</p>
|
|
<p>Within phpMyAdmin, user management is controlled via the <em class="guilabel">Users</em> link
|
|
from the main page. Users can be created, edited, and removed.</p>
|
|
<div class="section" id="creating-a-new-user">
|
|
<h2>Creating a new user<a class="headerlink" href="#creating-a-new-user" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
|
<p>To create a new user, click the <em class="guilabel">Add a new user</em> link near the bottom
|
|
of the <em class="guilabel">Users</em> page (you must be a “superuser”, e.g., user “root”).
|
|
Use the textboxes and drop-downs to configure the user to your particular
|
|
needs. You can then select whether to create a database for that user and grant
|
|
specific global privileges. Once you’ve created the user (by clicking Go), you
|
|
can define that user’s permissions on a specific database (don’t grant global
|
|
privileges in that case). In general, users do not need any global privileges
|
|
(other than USAGE), only permissions for their specific database.</p>

<div class="section" id="editing-an-existing-user">
|
|
<h2>Editing an existing user<a class="headerlink" href="#editing-an-existing-user" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
|
<p>To edit an existing user, simply click the pencil icon to the right of that
|
|
user in the <em class="guilabel">Users</em> page. You can then edit their global- and
|
|
database-specific privileges, change their password, or even copy those
|
|
privileges to a new user.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="section" id="deleting-a-user">
|
|
<h2>Deleting a user<a class="headerlink" href="#deleting-a-user" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
|
<p>From the <em class="guilabel">Users</em> page, check the checkbox for the user you wish to
|
|
remove, select whether or not to also remove any databases of the same name (if
|
|
they exist), and click Go.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="section" id="assigning-privileges-to-user-for-a-specific-database">
|
|
<h2>Assigning privileges to user for a specific database<a class="headerlink" href="#assigning-privileges-to-user-for-a-specific-database" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
|
<p>Users are assigned to databases by editing the user record (from the
|
|
<em class="guilabel">Users</em> link on the home page) not from within the <em class="guilabel">Users</em>
|
|
link under the table. If you are creating a user specifically for a given table
|
|
you will have to create the user first (with no global privileges) and then go
|
|
back and edit that user to add the table and privileges for the individual
|
|
table.</p>
