Permanently configure phpMyAdmin

[GoWilkes]

I use mobile internet at home, but it changes my IP a few times a day. Every time it does, I have to log back in to PMA, then have to re-import settings from the browser's storage! It's very annoying.

After I do this, I see a message that says:

Your preferences will be saved for current session only. Storing them permanently requires phpMyAdmin configuration storage.

The link takes me to a page that I'm sure PMA thinks explains the process, but... no. LOL The link points to the docs on my server; I'm not sure the exact path, but it ends with:

/3rdparty/phpMyAdmin/doc/html/setup.html#linked-tables

The first thing it says is to go to ./sql, "where you should find a file called create_tables.sql". But neither the file nor the directory seem to exist on the server! :-/

Is there an easy way to just take what I've already configured and make it permanent? The changes I've made are really just cosmetic so I don't want to spend all day working on it.

Hey there! The documentation it is referencing can be found in this path on your server:

/usr/local/cpanel/base/3rdparty/phpMyAdmin/doc/html/

The "create_tables.sql" can be found here:

/usr/local/cpanel/base/3rdparty/phpMyAdmin/sql

If you'd like an easier way to control that, I'd recommend submitting a feature request using the link in my signature to see if that is something we could get added to the cPanel & WHM interface.
