1.2. Store Configuration

This chapter describes how to create a new configuration, rename an existing one, delete or clone connection from the list, save current or all configurations to a file.

Go to Settings-> Preferences (F12) -> Database Connection tab.

To start working with your store, first of all, you have to select or create your Store Configuration (connection settings name) recommend to use your store name or some other informative name.

You can [Load your configuration] from a file, if you have saved configuration settings previously.

Also, you can select any configuration from the drop-down in order to switch between your stores.

1. Create new configuration name

1.1. Use the corresponding option on this tab and specify the name for your store configuration (for more convenience, use the name directly related to the store which you are connecting to)

1.2. Click [OK] to save or [Cancel] to discard this entry.

In the drop-down list, which appears after pressing the browse button next to the "Store name" field, you can see and use newly created configuration.

You have the possibility to add as many database connections to the list as you need.

2. If you want to work with the default database, select the "Local (Embedded) database" checkbox.

3. To be able to clone your configuration with all settings details select Other Actions -> Clone Configuration.

4. Rename configuration:

• Press [Other Actions...] next to the "Store Name" field and select "Rename Configuration" from the drop-down.

• Change your configuration name in the appropriate window.

• Click [OK] to save this entry.

5. To delete your configuration, select the relevant action from the drop-down list and confirm it. Note that you won't be able to undo this action!

6. To save current configuration and its settings, select the corresponding button in the "Database Connection" tab.

7. To have an opportunity to save all connections from the list to a separate file, open [Other Actions...] and choose "Save all Configurations" from the drop-down list.

This option can be used if you would like to move your connection settings to new PC or reinstall Store Manager using complete uninstallation.
