I take it that this is for Wordpress? If so, here's some basic instructions for you:


This is the name of the host where the database is stored. Some hosts have different names other than "localhost", and they should be available in your user account panel. Some providers send the details to you via email, so it may be worth checking older emails if need be. It pays to keep these details somewhere safe.



This is where you put the user-name for the user that you have given access privileges for the database. For example, you could have something like ('USER', 'bobJones');. If you haven't yet created a user, do this now - this should be reasonably easy if you're using cPanel (it's the only interface I've used), but if you use something different, let me know.


This is where you put the password of the user defined above. When you create a user, you will need to create a password. If you can, try and make it reasonably strong (mix the password string up with alpha-numeric characters and special characters). Remembering this password you created for the user, you would add it something like this: ('PASS', 'jkg!%^kU17!78g');. Make sure you have the correct password for the given user.


This is the name of the database you plan to use for the website (I'm assuming Wordpress). Make sure that the user you created is assigned access privileges to this database. An example would be something like this: ('DBNAME', 'wordpressBlog');.

If you're still confused, PM me. I can set this up for you for free - although I would need your database details etc (you can always change the passwords etc later on, but you will need to update the code if you do).

Alright thank you sooo much mannnnn got it
