Can I Change Database in WordPress?

When it comes to managing your WordPress blog, one of the most important decisions you will make is which database to use.

There are two main options: the default WordPress database, which is based on the MySQL database, and a custom database.

The default WordPress database is great for most blogs, but if you want to use a different database, you can easily change to a custom database.

Here’s how:

1. Log into your WordPress site.

2. Click the “Admin” menu item and then click the “Settings” tab.

3. Click the “Databases” button.

4. Select the “Database” you want to use and then click the “SELECT” button.

5. Choose the “MySQL” database and click the “CREATE” button.

6. Enter the appropriate database user name and password and then click the “GRANT” button.

7. Click the “OK” button to save the changes and return to the “Admin” menu.

8. Click the “Posts” menu item and then click the “Pages” tab.

9. Click the “Settings” link next to the “Pages” tab and then click the “Databases” button.
