Actually the look is not so cool...I have tried to make it look a lot like the original CP ( cause some functionality from it is still used )
and if you ask me personally the original GUI looks like ****...

Anyway, I guess features is what is most important :)

Modified PhpMyAdmin where client only sees their own databases


Im not sure if i understand this correctly, you have modified phpMyAdmin so clients only see there own databases?

Yes correct.

As PhpMyAdmin works today anyone can see all databases on a server ( although they might not have any rights to do anything in them ), however my mod makes it only list the current users databases

That is not right, if you set the permissions right users cant see each others databases.

I was referring to the concept. Anyways, you may have more luck with the appearence if you were to just create your own, cool looking CP skin. Make it something that looks more appealing than the cobalt GUI.

More along the lines of a CPanel or Albanza.

What he means is that a user that logs into MySQL (in this case via phpMyAdmin) can list all databases, but he/she can not access them to view the tables and the information inside.

I haven't tried to make the actual database list unavailable for users except the owner, however, if you know of a way, please do share.

If you read the docs that come with phpmyadmin it explains how to set it up so that users can login with mysql username and see only their databases. It works really well.
