Hi people, <\/p>\n
I am quite new to managing my own website and an SQL database, and my question is pretty simple but I’m not sure where else to look for the answer. <\/p>\n
When I uploaded wordpress using an FTP, I put the files in the public_html folder. When I login to MySQL, the database which contains the tables I am manipulating also contains wp tables – wp_comments, wp_links, etc. <\/p>\n
Consequently, when I look at the ABASE settings, it ‘connects’ to the one database that I have. <\/p>\n
Next to this it says: \t“leave blank for WordPress database”<\/p>\n
But the changes I want to use ABASE to make are not to do with the wordpress tables, they’re to do with the other tables. <\/p>\n
In short, have I put wordpress in the wrong place? If I try and manipulate data in the database tables that I have made, will they connect? <\/p>\n
Just trying to anticipate the problem \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n
