How to connect to remote DB in local phpMyAdmin (WAMP)?

Question

I'm using WAMP server with MySQL Version : 5.6.17. Is there a way to connect to remote DB from my local phpMyAdmin?

I have credentials for remote database, but I can not find a way how to add a connection in my local panel.

I found over the new that it is something related to some config file, or something called PMA, but couldn't found more details about it.

Solution

In config.inc.php under your phpMyAdmin folder, change the value of $cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] from 'localhost' to the ip address of your remote DB.

See http://docs.phpmyadmin.net/en/latest/config.html#cfg_Servers_host for details.
