Hello everyone,
I was wondering how you can change the name of the database in Hesk? I can change in it MySQL, but if I do Hesk brings up an error page saying "Database not found", thus not allowing me to change the name of the database. Do i need to change the name is Hesk first?
Any guidance would be appreicated.
Thank yo
