Welcome to our new clients!

Database management enhancements

If you've found managing your databases a little unwieldy, especially if you have multiple databases and users; I have some good news! We've greatly improved the database management interface so you'll be able to see your user/permission setup at a glance.

• Log into your ThinkHost account
• Select "manage databases" from the left hand menu
• Scroll down to the bottom of the page
• Click on any of the "edit permissions" links

All of your databases and permissions will be displayed - you can use this feature to make multiple changes across all your databases with just a few clicks!

Have a good weekend!
