View Full Version : Hate new phpmyadmin

I just upgraded to IWorx 3.0, which is nice, with a few new features :)
However when I logged into phpmyadmin, all the graphical buttons are gone and the text is huge (running off my screen). I changed the settings to make the font smaller but it still looks like garbage.
What version of phpmyadmin was running on IWorx 2.1.x, and how (if possible) can I downgrade to it? I really can't work within this "new" PMA interface.
Alternatively, I could *possibly* get used to the newest testing version that has the graphical buttons. But it's still a step backwards to me.
I found the same problem after I upgraded my custom install of phpMyAdmin some time ago - I installed two themes (one that I prefer over the original theme, and is actually even smaller than the other one I installed, which is a smaller version of the original one)
Pixeline:

Original Small:

Hope this helps :)

Thanks Fr3d, I installed the "very small" theme which works great with PMA 2.9.2 & IWorx 3.0:

Any idea why the new version doesn't have buttons for "edit", "primary key" etc? It seems to only be there for the testing version
Which buttons do you mean? Can you take a screenshot of them in a "normal" version of PMA and post it?

I like how this forum emails me when there is a reply. The buttons I mean are these:

Currently in Iworx 3 there are words instead of buttons (Browse, Edit) and it takes up extra space. I liked the button layout better.
Locate and edit the config file for phpMyAdmin, and add this to the end:
$cfg['PropertiesIconic'] = true;
True means icons only, false is text only, and you can also use the string "both" to show icons and text.
More info: http://www.phpmyadmin.net/documentation/#cfg_PropertiesIconic
Hope this helps :)
