Missing databases in PhpMyAdmin

We have recently encountered a bug where some users can’t see their database when logging in via SSO to PhpMyAdmin, we have a simple fix for this as outlined below. This does involve deleting a MySQL database users, so make sure it is the one ending in _phpma.

  1. Login to your cp.purely.website account.
  2. Click on the website you wish to fix the database login for.
  3. Using the top menu, click Databases, then click the Users tab.
  4. Find and click on the user ending in _phpma.
  5. Scroll to the bottom of the page, and click the delete button.
  6. Click back on one of your databases, then click the PhpMyAdmin button, this will re-create the user ending in _phpma and allow you to login to view them within PhpMyAdmin correctly.

That should be it, if you have any issues please let us know via a support ticket.
