Introduction
------------
I put this together because I wanted to have access to phpMyAdmin from the admin console in WordPress. I was basically getting sick and tired of separate logins and windows in order to access the database directly.

It is a very simple plugin to use. Follow the instructions for installing it and away you go! You don't even have to go through the trouble of going through their setup script or creating their config file. Everything has been done for you and the settings from your WordPress setup will be passed over.

Some of the features have been removed or changed slightly for things to work and to maintain security. However you'll find that most of the things you are used to are still available. Due to the changes that I made, you will only be able to access the phpMyAdmin console from within your WordPress admin console. Trying to link directly will bomb!

If you need help on using phpMyadmin, please go to their site (http://www.phpmyadmin.net) and you will find extensive documentation on how to use it.

If you are feeling generous after trying this plugin out, please support my efforts through the donate link you see on my site at http://www.silpstream.com/blog/. I've been cracking the code out on my free time, so even a small token amount is appreciated.

Hope you find this useful. Let me know if you have any problems or have suggestions for improving it! Thanks!

Installation
------------
1. Extract the files and transfer the 'wp-phpmyadmin' folder to your plugins folder.
2. Log into your admin panel and click on 'Activate'.
3. Goto the 'Manage' tab of your admin console and you'll find phpMyAdmin.

Language Support
----------------
phpMyAdmin has the ability to support multiple languages. For this plugin I have included the files for only the following languages:

1)English
2)Chinese simplified and traditional
3)French
4)German
5)Japanese
6)Korean
7)Spanish

I did this because providing the full set of languages was putting a strain on my bandwidth and was starting to cost me money on the hosting side. As I provide this plugin for free, the best thing that I could do was to remove some of the languages.

If you need to use other languages, you will need to download the phpMyAdmin (Version 2.8.2) file from the phpMyAdmin site. After unzipping the file, go to the 'lang' directory and copy the language file that you need to the 'lang' directory for the WP-phpMyAdmin plugin. Becareful not to delete or overwrite other files as they have been modified to work within WordPress. If you are unsure of this, do get in touch with me and I'll try to help you.
