Hi there,
Having a similar issue where i have installed the module but don't know how to configure it to enter data that can be displayed. Which method will be faster to load the data, a cvs file or database?
I have created a database through my hosting site control panel with access through PhpMyAdmin,
how can i go about inserting data through PhpMyAdmin Table that can be displayed using the module?
And if i decided to go with the plug-in how can i set this up as well?
New to this system, any information is appreciated.
Also, not cleared on the difference between a local joomla database and an external one.
How is the local joomla database created? I assume that my PhpMyAdmin DB is external right?
Thank you,
Hector

Hello,
It is preferable to use a database if you have a large data.
"- Joomla! database -" option is selected if table(s) with data which you want to show is located in Joomla! database (where Joomla! tables are located). In this case the extension can use Joomla! DB connection and it doesn't require to enter connection parameters for DB. If your table(s) is located in not Joomla! database then it requires to specify connection parameters.

Are your tables stored in Joomla! database or not?
The extension shows data from a database based on "SELECT" SQL query. It is entered in "SQL -> SQL query" parameter. For example the following query will select Joomla! articles ID and title:
SELECT
id,
title
FROM
#__content

Set "Choose source type" parameter to "SQL", set "SQL -> Choose DB type" parameter to "External database", set "SQL -> External database -> DB Type" to "MySQL" or "MySQL (mysqli)" value and enter parameters for database connection in "External database -> Host", "External database -> User", "External database -> Password", "External database -> DB name" parameters. After this enter an "SELECT" SQL query which will selects data in "SQL -> SQL query" parameter.
