How Do I Add a New Database to WordPress?

Adding a new database to WordPress can be done in a few different ways. The most common way is to use the WordPress database editor, which is available as a plugin or as a built-in feature of the WordPress admin area.

To use the WordPress database editor, go to the “Support” section of the WordPress website, and then click on the “Manage Database” button.

Once you’re in the database editor, you can click on the “Add New Database” button to get started. The first thing you need to do is choose a name for your database, and then select a database location on your server.

WordPress will create a new database table for you, and you’ll need to provide a name for the table and a password for the database.

Once you’ve set up your database, you’ll need to add your WordPress site to the database. To do this, go to the “Settings” section of the WordPress website, and then click on the “Site” button.

In the “Site” section, you’ll need to click on the “Databases” button, and then select the database you want to add your site to. WordPress will then connect to the database and add your site to the database.
