Using iPowerWeb Hosting WordPress Website – MySql Server Host

If you’re using iPowerWeb as your hosting provider for a WordPress website and you can’t get you MySql database to work on their platform then make sure you’re using the right MySql Server Host URL.

I recently was importing a developed website for a client from my development server to their iPowerWeb Hosting and I had trouble getting the database activated. The reason why is because iPowerWeb does not use the “localhost” that is most often found in hosting environments for WordPress.

Simple Fix!

In the Wp-config.php file, update the MySql Sever location (DB_HOST) to be YourIpowerwebUserName.ipowermysql.com

Good Luck!
