Magento is a great E-Commerceshopping solution and this great E-Commerce cms has some premade templates that comes with magento installation and database that you may need to change the database name to what you’ve already c reated as cpanel will ad username prefix to it so you have to change the name of the database of such pre-installed magento or even you may need to change the database name in any condition.

changing magento database is easy and you just need to edit an xml file named local.xml
It is really a question for me and so many people who have been in such situation that why the name isn’t config.xml instead and this may have a good reason for the developer
this file is located at

app/etc/local.xml

open this file and edit this protion of xml file

<default_setup>
                <connection>
                    <host><![CDATA[localhost]]></host>
                    <username><![CDATA[username]]></username>
                    <password><![CDATA[password]]></password>
                    <dbname><![CDATA[dbname]]></dbname>
                    <active>1</active>
                </connection>
            </default_setup>

and you just need to change the values that are enclosed in [CDATA[]] tag

  86. I was curious if you ever considered changing the structure of your website?

    Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe
    you could a little more in the way of content so people
    could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or 2 pictures.
    Maybe you could space it out better? https://Xenofon.gr/ATHENS-0000001615-eteries-marketingk-diadiktiou-stin-india.html
