    Is there a way to set up WHM so when a new account is created it automatically creates a MySQL account too, and ideally a new database for the user?

    I've looked through all the database-related settings and I can't find anything.

    I take it back -- the users are already there :)

    Any way to create a DB for them automatically though?

    You can add this to the postwwwacct script to add a database upon account creation.

    Furthermore, you can call our APIs to create a database user and the database. I recommend creating a separate database user so when one day the user changes their cPanel password, they aren't confused as to why their databases have suddenly stopped working.
