I am not the author of Adminer. I am only the author who does the WordPress integration with Adminer.
Author of Adminer is Jakub Vrana and you can donate him from there.
Compatible also with WordPress Multisite installations
You can access the WP Adminer from the below positions:
1. WP Adminer URL in the Admin Bar
2. WP Adminer Tools Page (Dashboard > Tools > WP Adminer)
I don’t use a plugin like this every day. But when you need direct and easy access to your WordPress database… it’s the best! The user-interface is good and logical, and searches are really fast.
Very handy! I’ve never been a fan of the phpMyAdmin provided by my hosting. Adminer with this integration is so much cleaner. The quick links to common tables are a great touch, saves me clicks every time. Thanks for maintaining this plugin!
Excelente plugin, funciona muy bien. Muy recomendado!
The plugin works great, it opens the WordPress database with Adminer. I will try with define('PEXLECHRIS_ADMINER_HAVE_ACCESS_ONLY_IN_WP_DB', false);
To have access to other proxy SQL views. Great work!
Awesome plugin, simple, and straightforward.
