    WordPress says this in the instructions:

    Click the Home icon in the upper left to return to the main page, then click Privileges. If a user relating to WordPress does not already exist in the list of users, create one:

    1. Click Add a new User.
    2. Chose a username for WordPress (‘wordpress’ is good) and enter it in the User name field. (Be sure Use text field: is selected from the dropdown.)
    3. Choose a difficult-to-guess password (ideally containing a combination of upper- and lower-case letters, numbers, and symbols), and enter it in the Password field. (Be sure Use text field: is selected from the dropdown.) Re-enter the password in the Re-type field.
    4. Write down the username and password you chose.
    5. Leave all options under Global privileges at their defaults.
    6. Click Go.

    I don’t see where it says “privileges”. Here’s a screenie of what I’m looking at:

  • I have seen first in my life time a Phpmyadmin page with no option of previlages. hmmm. what u can do is try reinstalling it and create a new user using mysql query. If their is no user then it will not show any privilages.

    I believe with a freehostia.com that the database user is given all the privileges automatically.
