Hi,

Thanks for using “External Database Connect” and sorry for delayed response.

You can edit the database details in settings page from admin WP panel. You can find the link in left nav menu in admin panel under your plugin menu link.

I hope this helps you. Still If you find issues then please feel free to write.

Hi,

Thanks for using “External DB Connect“.

Sorry for delayed response.

Here are the possible solutions for your case.
1. Look out for any ready plugin which will achieve your targets.
2. You need to implement cross domain session management feature to support same user base among multiple domains.
3. You need to modify code of all your WP sites to manage/share users among them.

Please feel free to have a word if you have any issue/problem or need further support.

Hi HarryAlexander,

Thanks for using “External DB Connect“. I believe you are doing well and it helps you a lot.

Regarding question you have asked in your last post, these are not code WP files. These are the plugin files and absolutely fine to modify.

Hi amitasthana,

Thanks for using “External DB Connect”..!!

This is just a settings page where we save database and other details. if you want to check if its connected to database or not then you have to go to the plugin data page “External DB data”.

Note: If database details are incorrect then it will lead to error.

I hope this will clear your doubt.

Hi,

Simply, create a user in your external database with

1. Username: Medina (your WP admin username)
2. Password: ****** (your WP admin password)
3. Privileges: All

And then try to connect, it should work now.

There is note at the top of External Database Settings page “Make sure your WP admin account exists in the external db prior to saving these settings.” Didn’t you notice that?

There should be the user in your external database with your WP admin username and WP admin password.

I hope this may help now.

Hi ulises2010,

I believe you are doing well.

I have gone through the problem you are facing, please check with below details which will help you to resolve the same.

It seems that you are trying to connect to your external database with the user (Medina) which is not exist in your external database OR it may do not have sufficient permissions to perform actions on your external database. Please make sure that you should have user in your external database with below details.

Username: Medina (Your WP admin username)

Password: ********** (Your WP admin password)

privileges: All privileges

Note: Please enter the same username and password in plugin settings page in your WP admin panel.

Additional Information: Please try to understand the plugin behavior through below steps.

1. When you install “External DB Connect” plugin, you can see the settings page in your WP admin panel.
2. You should have access to the external database you are trying to connect, say you have “root” user with all privileges, which will be used by the plugin to perform operations.
3. Enter all the required details on settings page. Note here you have to enter user=”root” and password=”PASSWORD_FOR_USER_root” along with other details like host name, privileges to be given to end users to access data from database.
4. Whenever a new user (End User) is created OR existing user is edited in WP, plugin will create a fresh user in your “External Database” with WP Username and Password with given privileges (permissions).
5. That’s it, now the user is ready to access the data from your “External Database”.

Note: Here you need a user which will be used by plugin to deal with your “External Database”. And plugin will handle rest of the things. Also make sure, if you are installing “External DB Connect” on existing WP site having active users, then you have to edit all the users explicitly. No worries for upcoming (new) users.

I hope this may help. Please feel free to ask if you have any queries.

Thanks for using plugin and reporting an issue.
