How to import a table using phpMyAdmin?

PhpMyAdmin is a useful database tool that can be used for a variety of MySQL database operations.

The following tutorial covers the import feature. Before you make any changes, be sure that you have a current backup of your database. Importing a table means that you will be bringing data and/or a table structure into the database. 

1. Login to cPanel.
