You can only create databases through the NySQL Databases in vPanel. If you found another way to do it, **don’t** because you will run the risk of breaking the database.

Once you have created the database, find you WordPress database export and [import it to phpMyAdmin](https://forum.infinityfree.com/t/how-to-import-a-mysql-database-backup/49341) (please don’t ask how, use the search bar, that’s why it’s here). Then upload the files **via FileZilla** to your /htdocs directory.

And as we have told you before, why don’t you just try, not ask a thousand questions before, and then if you do run into a problem, ask it!
