[phpMyAdmin Developers] Connection string issue

The code you've posted isn't from phpMyAdmin, and phpMyAdmin isn't an
interface you can use to connect your website to the database. You
would use phpMyAdmin to manually perform administrative tasks on your
database such as adding new user accounts to MySQL, creating a new
database, or changing a table's collation. The interface between your
website and the database is handled by some other interface (a
programming library) and isn't really related to phpMyAdmin; the
system running your website and phpMyAdmin seem to talk to the same
database, but they operate independently from each other.

Sadly, I haven't seen anything identifiable to even help point you in
the right direction for more help. Most web sites are driven by some
common application (such as WordPress, for instance) or completely
custom code, and if you can determine what platform that is you could
begin asking for help in that community. We don't have the resources
or access to your server to look in to details of what the other
application is doing.
