you
can set up your database tables by clicking SQL at the top

To set up your php script. 

1. Right-click "config.php" and go to "open

$conf['database_name'] = "databasename"; 
<<
type database name
$conf['database_host'] = "localhost or database Host"; 
<<  type database host.  Usually localhost
$conf['database_login'] = "your username"; 
<< 
type database MySQL database user name.
$conf['database_pass'] = "yourpassword";

hosting company this part of the script could be different. Email the tech
support of your hosting company and ask "What is the connection string protocol
for the MySQL database?"
