HOW DO I GRANT PRIVILEGES IN MYSQL?

Grant for each table:

GRANT permission ON database.table TO 'user'@'localhost';

Grant for database:

GRANT permission ON database.* TO user@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

Once you have given the desired privileges for your user, you will need to run this command within the MySQL command prompt:

FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

To see a list of the privileges that have been granted to a specific user:

select * from mysql.user where User='username';
