Add phpMyAdmin Link

Minimum Requirements:
phpBB 2.0*
PHP 4.1.0†

Page Updated: Mar 11, 2006

Here is where it all began. Add phpMyAdmin Link was the very first phpBB modification I released. I never imagined this little thing, a mere one line change at the time, would lead to such a large site and a book deal.

The hack has grown a bit since then, but is still just as useful. Add phpMyAdmin Link adds a link to a installation of phpMyAdmin to the phpBB Administration Control Panel and forum footers. The latter is only displayed to forum administrators, just like the "Go to Administration Panel" link.

Here's a tip! Even though this modification was created to add a link to phpMyAdmin, you can actually use it to link to anything at all! Just change the URL for the link.

To add multiple links, repeat the install while changing all "phpMyAdmin" and "PHPMYADMIN" occurances to some other name.
