phpFlashMyAdmin integrated with the ACP

This hack is really more of a mini mod since there is only 1 file edit, and it really isn't much, but I thought one or two people might like it.

I found phpFlashMyAdmin to be a very helpful tool and much easier to use than the phpMyAdmin provided in cPanel, and I decided to write a quick hack so I could use it from inside the Admin Control Panel.

First upload the 'phpflashmyadmin' folder to your forum home directory (the same folder where the 'includes,' and 'admincp' folder are located), and then make the following edit:

in admincp/index.php find:

PHP Code:

        $printhr = false;
    if (can_administer('canadminmaintain'))
    {
        $printhr = true;
        construct_nav_option($vbphrase['database_backup'], 'backup.php?do=choose', '<br />');
        construct_nav_option($vbphrase['repair_optimize_tables'], 'repair.php?do=list', '<br />');
        construct_nav_option($vbphrase['update_counters'], 'misc.php?do=chooser', '|');
        construct_nav_option($vbphrase['diagnostics'], 'diagnostic.php?do=list', '<br />'); 


add below:

PHP Code:

        construct_nav_option('phpMyAdmin', '../phpflashmyadmin/index.html', '<br />'); 


save and upload the file.

Then, log in to your Admin Control Panel and go to "Import & Maintenance" and you will see the 'phpMyAdmin' option you just added. Click on the option and enter your login info and start editing your database or running sql queries (without that annoying page refresh you get in the cPanel version of phpMyAdmin). Browsing through your database is much easier with phpFlashMyAdmin.

NOTE: I tried placing the phpFlashMyAdmin folder inside my ACP to make it more secure, but the app kept giving me errors, so if anyone can figure out how to make it work with the folder inside the ACP I would appreciate it.

If you find this helpful please click install (it's my first hack)

you need to buy phpFlashMyAdmin, and install it, and then put the folder in your forum home directory.

Nice ever thought of integrating the acp with phpMyAdmin this time?
