Before doing so, please check the following things: + +1. Check whether the bug you face **hasn't been already reported**. Duplicate reports takes us time, that we could be used to fix other bugs or make improvements. +2. Specify the phpMyAdmin, server, PHP, MySQL and browser information that may be helpful to fix the problem, especially exact **version numbers**. +3. If you got some error, please **describe what happened** and add error message. Reports like "I get error when I clicked on some link." are useless. +4. Provide easy steps to reproduce and if possible include your table structure (``SHOW CREATE TABLE `tbl_name```); if your problem implies specific data, attach a small export file for sample rows. +5. **Security problems** should not be reported here.
