How Do I Change My WordPress Database Port?

If you’re running a WordPress site on a server with a default port (3306), you might want to switch to a different port. To do this, you’ll need to edit your wp-config.php file. To find this file, open your WordPress site in your web browser, and go to the root directory.

There you’ll see a file called wp-config.php. In the file, you’ll find the following line:.

define(‘WP_PORT’, ‘3306’);

To change the port, you’ll need to change this line to reflect the port you want to use. For example, if you’re using a port other than 3306, you’ll need to add that port number to the end of the line. To do this, you can use a port number finder like this one:

Once you’ve found the port number you want to use, you’ll need to add it to the end of the line. For example, if you’re using a port number of 8888, you’d add this line to your wp-config.php file:

define(‘WP_PORT’, ‘8888’);

Once you’ve made these changes, you’ll need to restart your WordPress site to take effect.
