if i new all the mysql login details could i connect to the phpmyadmin without logging into cpanel, just curious thanks
Well, I work with infinityhost.com and fxdomains.com as my hosting providers, and both cpanel allow me to do a direct access to the phpmyadmin page. Maybe your provider has a different configuration but I really dont think so. infinityhost.com opens the phpmyadmin in a browser window without the url address, but that is not a problem, as you can copy the link with the right mouse button
use this url to connect directly to your phpmyadmin if you use x3 skin yourdomain.com:2083/frontend/x3/sql/PhpMyAdmin.html
You can use the below link to access phpMyAdmin directly: https://yourdomain.com:2083/3rdparty/phpMyAdmin/ Kailash
With cPanel =<9, you still needed to input your cPanel login details to get there. I'm not sure how it is in the new versions. Your best bet is to just upload phpMyAdmin yourself.
You dont need CPANEL to directly connect to MySql database .... use the phpadmin URL to connect to MySQL database. Then it will ask you for your MySQL username and password. I hope this will work for you
