What do you have to do in Yahoo to create a new database? Simple answer. You can't. Yahoo doesn't allow it. Regardless of the db password issue (which, as wank pointed out is still a problem) there are enough other problems to steer totally clear of yahoo hosting, as I've noted in my <a href="http://kickasswebdesign.com/wordpress/2006/01/followup-on-wordpress-on-yahoo/" rel="nofollow">followup post</a> Tell the truth, I honestly didn’t think to look in wp-config, since I was so freaking PISSED that phpmyadmin was so totally useless in yahoo.

Fast.

My site was contantly down, at times I couldn't even connect to my webhosting manager. I run a popular weblog and when big sites like Yahoo! (ironically) linked to my site, giving me spectacular exposure, it wend down again. It's funny to see that your Yahoo! search pages are never down. It's not because we run small businesses that you have to treat us like shit. Stay away from Yahoo! hosting at all costs! I've been with them for two weeks and I'm switching. Damn, even the robbers and liars over at lunarpages have a higher uptime. And one last thing, when a customer send two mails for support and is completely ignored, it's not Yahoo! anymore, it's Yapooh!

Whoever wrote this article apparently doesn't have the know how to just look in the wp-config file for the database user and password name. I agree with Matt.
