This is the main screen of the Adminer module

It has three main service areas:

* MySQL Management
* MySQL Editor
* BigDump

and two help areas:

* About Us
* Help

When you go to the MySQL Management Tab, you will need to login and select the database you want to use

![](https://516424436-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LD6Mk5l3GSpkGtsZK7g%2F-LD6My6DMDZ3mvRJl3ze%2F-LD6N3CJPURCv7-tAq_W%2Fimage003.png?generation=1526984624347935\&alt=media)

After you login, you are presented with the list of available databases, and you can select the one you want to work with

![](https://516424436-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LD6Mk5l3GSpkGtsZK7g%2F-LD6My6DMDZ3mvRJl3ze%2F-LD6N3CLRNQRH9vkC0S-%2Fimg000051.png?generation=1526984624394032\&alt=media)

After you select the Database, you can see the tables and select one (or several, if you want to do "bulk" operations)

![](https://516424436-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LD6Mk5l3GSpkGtsZK7g%2F-LD6My6DMDZ3mvRJl3ze%2F-LD6N3CN2gz3-B0sz2ZR%2Fimg000052.png?generation=1526984624431372\&alt=media)

You can view the data stored in the table

![](https://516424436-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LD6Mk5l3GSpkGtsZK7g%2F-LD6My6DMDZ3mvRJl3ze%2F-LD6N3CPTdbZzA7_iTEb%2Fimg000053.png?generation=1526984624425701\&alt=media)

You can also view the structure of the table

## **MySQL Editor**

![](https://516424436-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LD6Mk5l3GSpkGtsZK7g%2F-LD6My6DMDZ3mvRJl3ze%2F-LD6N3CRAALa2x3HO8Z_%2Fimg000054.png?generation=1526984624471133\&alt=media)

In the **MySQL Editor**, you can also select database and the table

![](https://516424436-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LD6Mk5l3GSpkGtsZK7g%2F-LD6My6DMDZ3mvRJl3ze%2F-LD6N3CTho2uP39JepOZ%2Fimg000055.png?generation=1526984624456483\&alt=media)

You can select and edit individual records.

![](https://516424436-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LD6Mk5l3GSpkGtsZK7g%2F-LD6My6DMDZ3mvRJl3ze%2F-LD6N3CVitHXu2tlng4y%2Fimg000056.png?generation=1526984624396180\&alt=media)

Sometimes this might be faster that doing it using the edit forms provided by individual modules

## **BigDump**

![](https://516424436-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LD6Mk5l3GSpkGtsZK7g%2F-LD6My6DMDZ3mvRJl3ze%2F-LD6N3CXJDVyiO9gPzeO%2Fimg000057.png?generation=1526984624415426\&alt=media)

In the opening screen of BigDump you can select the "Dump" file that you want to upload, and then start the uploading process.
