phpMyAdmin: change default number of rows displayed?

Question

By default, phpMyAdmin shows me 30 rows whenever I load a table (the query contains \"LIMIT 30\"). I generally want to see (up to) a few hundred rows.

Is there a way

Answer 1

In your phpMyAdmin directory, there will be a file called "config.inc.php".

Find the line where it sets the MaxRows value:

$cfg['MaxRows'] = 1000;

And change the value to whatever you want.

Answer 2

There is a config setting for this:

Answer 3

1. Find the file config.inc.php in your phpmyadmin directory

2. Edit it in any text editor

3. look for the line which contains the word $cfg['MaxRows']
4. if it has value like this ($cfg['MaxRows'] = 30; ) just edit the number (30) to the number of rows you like -- if that line doesn't exist just Add it at the end of the file before the ?> tag as follow:

......

$cfg['MySQLManualBase'] = 'http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en';
$cfg['MySQLManualType'] = 'searchable';

$cfg['MaxRows'] = 1000;

?>

Answer 4

Using phpMyAdmin version 3.4 and above you are able to change the default rows shown by:

On the phpMyAdmin home screen click Settings >> Main frame >> Browse mode and altering the value within Maximum number of rows to display.
