This works fine as long as you have access to the login credentials for cPanel. But of you&#8217;re the only one with access to those credentials and don&#8217;t want to hand them over to anyone else, only you will be able to use phpMyAdmin this way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One way to get around this problem is to install phpMyAdmin on your account, circumventing the need to log on to cPanel entirely. You can install it manually, or via Softaculous (also accessible via cPanel). These instructions will describe how you perform the installation via Softaculous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Begin by <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.oderland.se\/support\/en\/artikel\/how-do-i-login-to-cpanel\/\" data-type=\"ht_kb\" data-id=\"4236\" target=\"_blank\">logging on to cPanel<\/a> and clicking the icon <code>Softaculous Apps Installer<\/code> under <code>Software<\/code>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oderland.se\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/cpanel_softaculous_icon_en.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"982\" height=\"194\" src=\"https:\/\/www.oderland.se\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/cpanel_softaculous_icon_en.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12665\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Once there, use the search field in the top left and search for <code>phpMyAdmin<\/code>.
