I used the one click install for Wordpress. I want to use a local database client ‘table plus’ to access and manage the database. How do I find out the database name?

Hello,
The correct database name would be specified in your
wp-config.php
file.With your favorite text editor, you need to open the
/var/www/html/wp-config.php
file and look forDB_NAME
. On that line, you will see the name of your database.In order to access your WordPress files you could either use SSH as described here:

Or if you prefer you could use SFTP as described here:

Let me know how it goes. Best, Bobby
