Surefire Web Developer Help
​

We have a small issue on our website, we are hosting our website off a localhost MySQL database and do not know how to access it from anywhere other than the computer it's hosted off of. (Using Xenforo) We are also looking for a permanent web dev (unpaid at the current moment). If you believe you can help please DM PvPGods#8864 on Discord or just join our discord and create a ticket, https://discord.gg/wmjFRxk

Thank you,
Surefire Support

Didn't know you can host a website on a mysql database

 

[ZakShearman]

If I am correct, you just need to bind MySQL to 0.0.0.0. There may be another step that I have forgotten such as creating it on the public IP, but I haven't done it in a while.

This isn't possible, as MYSQL has nothing to do with the handling of HTTP(s) requests. Maybe you have an all-in-one solution, and are getting confused?

and do not know how to access it from anywhere other than the computer it's hosted off of.

Are you trying to access the actual database, where the user and thread data etc is stored, or the actual website files (like the XenForo source code or your own custom .html, .php files)?

unpaid at the current moment

Doubt you'll find anyone to do that.
