Database credentials are individual to each application and are contained in the wp-config-hosting.php
file we manage for you. You can obtain the credentials from there.
For connecting externally, you have a couple of options:
- SSH Tunnel using any of your managed SSH user accounts.
- If you add a private RDS instance to your plan, we can set you up with an HAPROXY endpoint and restrict access to a list of IPs you provide us.
Note: Pagely creates a unique database user for each WordPress site we host. A compromised database user can only affect the single database the compromised user has been granted access to, isolating any potential damage to your data.
