Create And Attach Database User In CPanel

1. Log into your cPanel dashboard.
2. Locate the Databases icon from your main cPanel page and click on the MySQL Databases icon.
3. Once inside the database area, scroll down until you see the MySQL Users Add New User section. From here, you will see the form to create your new user. Note that the database name will always be prefixed with your cpanel username. Add the second portion to create the new database username. For example, our new user will be named inmoti6_imhtest.
4. Type in the password you desire for both the Password and Password (Again) fields.
5. Click the Create User button to complete the database user creation.

Assign the user to one or more databases

1. Locate the Add User to database section. You will see two dropdowns here. Select your desired user from the top dropdown and the database you wish to add it to from the lower dropdown.
2. Click the Add button to save the changes.
3. You are brought to a screen that allows you to select privileges. Generally speaking you will want to click the checkbox for ALL PRIVILEGES. Selecting individual privileges is a customization for advanced users.
4. Click the Make Changes button at the bottom to save the user and privileges to the database. You will be able to see the new user in the user list for each database they are assigned to in the database list.
5. Repeat steps 1-4 for any additional databases you want to allow the user to have access to.
