Jessica Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 I'm really hating this new interface for phpMyAdmin that uses a ton of modal windows/javascript/ajax stuff. Does anyone know when they started doing that? I'm having trouble figuring it out from their website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scootstah Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 All of the old functionality is still there. I think you are just clicking the wrong things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 .... I don't like the modal windows interface, or the ajax features. How do I turn it off? I am still able to create tables and run queries, etc. In older versions when you create a table you'd put the name and how many fields, and it would take you to the next page. Now, it pops up a modal window to enter the fields. I want the old way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scootstah Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 If you click "create table" on the navigation frame, it doesn't load a Modal window. As for your question, briefly looking through the changelog shows this for version 3.4.0.0 + [interface] AJAXification on various pages So maybe that's a start.

Jessica Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 Yeah, I already downloaded 3.3 and it won't let me login as root no password. :/ I was trying to quickly set up Wamp Server but I guess I'll have to mess around with it since it doesn't want to play nice with the older version of phpMyAdmin. *grumble grumble off my lawn* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scootstah Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 You can change the login options in the config file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Posted April 28, 2012 Author Share Posted April 28, 2012 I switched back to the newest version, found where to turn off all the ajax in the settings, but I can't get the settings to be permanent. According to the docs I need to run the create tables script, which I did, and then add the db and table to the config.inc.php, which I did. http://localhost/phpmyadmin/Documentation.html#linked-tables $cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb'] = 'phpmyadmin'; $cfg['Servers'][$i]['userconfig'] = 'pma_userconfig'; I restarted WAMP but it still says "Your preferences will be saved for current session only. Storing them permanently requires phpMyAdmin configuration storage." Anyone know what I'm missing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xyph Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Why not use a front-end that isn't phpMyAdmin? HeidiSQL is quite sexy http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9185/what-is-the-best-mysql-client-application-for-windows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeidiSQL is quite sexy http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9185/what-is-the-best-mysql-client-application-for-windows phpMyAdmin is what comes with WAMP, so I use it because it's there I will look into the tool you suggested though. I was trying to get a small project quickly set up, so Wamp Server as it comes was easiest. Now that it's set up I have time to play around with settings and other tools. Thanks!!
