    Hello, I have been using my website for a while now and it suddenly gave this warning: We were able to connect to the database server (which means your username and password is okay) but not able to select the cl53-estatepro database.

    Are you sure it exists?
    Does the user cl53-estatepro have permission to use the cl53-estatepro database?
    On some systems the name of your database is prefixed with your username, so it would be like username_cl53-estatepro. Could that be the problem?

    I did some research and checked what was suggested, i.e. also reloaded my wp_config.php and nothing is helping. Please assist me.
    // ** MySQL settings – You can get this info from your web host ** //
    /** The name of the database for WordPress */
    define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘cl53-estatepro’);

    /** MySQL database username */
    define(‘DB_USER’, ‘cl53-estatepro’);

    /** MySQL database password */
    define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘***********’);

    /** MySQL hostname */
    define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’);

    /** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
    define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’);

    /** The Database Collate type. Don’t change this if in doubt. */
    define(‘DB_COLLATE’, ”);

    First thing to do is to login to your cPanel, then go to phpMyAdmin and check whether cl53-estatepro database (if that’s the real name) really exists and if cl53-estatepro user has all the permissions.
