Sorry, these forums don't have any relationship with PhpMyAdmin.

its seems you didnot understand my question, by changing the phpmyadmin database password the ckeditor cant connect to the database, i need to know the files that ckeditor saves the mysql pass so i can change it to the new pass to make it able to connect to the sql database else it will say that msg.

CKEditor doesn't know anything about your database. It's an editor and nothing more.

because the code in your CMS is the one that connects to the database?

Hi .. i think you have on your FTP a php file called "connect_to_mysql.php" or something like this which include the username and password to database. So when you changed your pw at phpmyadmin but not in this file the website can not connect witth database, because it is trying to login with old pw .. try to find this file and change the old pw to new .. Hope it will works .. And i have a CMS on my website too and i have problem with my ckeditor .. when i am creating/editting site and press save .. the site which i create/edit is empty .. i think the editor is not connect with database .. pplease send me msg how to do it to my e-mail: striker112@azet.sk .
