Welcome to the adminer Technical wiki!

Best project EVER.

The example.php can be used to limit the tables displayed to a specific list with:

		function tableName($tableStatus) {
			// tables without comments would return empty string and will be ignored by Adminer
			$allowed_tables = Array('mytable1', 'mytable2');
			if (in_array($tableStatus["Name"], $allowed_tables))
				return h($tableStatus["Comment"]);
			else 
				return '';
		}

Different possibilities with columns to be displayed in the table initial listing:

		function fieldName($field, $order = 0) {
/*
$field = Array
(
    [field] => stock_id
    [full_type] => varchar(20)
    [type] => varchar
    [length] => 20
    [unsigned] => 
    [default] => 
    [null] => 
    [auto_increment] => 
    [on_update] => 
    [collation] => utf8_general_ci
    [privileges] => Array
        (
            [select] => 0
            [insert] => 1
            [update] => 2
            [references] => 3
        )

    [comment] => Part#
    [primary] => 1
)
*/
			if ($order && preg_match('~_(md5|sha1)$~', $field["field"])) {
				return ""; // hide hashes in select
			}
			// display only column with comments, first two of them plus searched columns and specific columns
			if ($order < 2) {
				return h($field["comment"]);
			} else if ($order) {
				if (preg_match('~^(ItemDesc|category_id|UPC)$~', $field["field"])) {
					return h($field["comment"]); // chosen fields ItemDesc,category_id,UPC in select
				}
				if (preg_match('~(Price)$~', $field["field"])) {
					return h($field["comment"]); // chosen field names in select ending with Price
				}
				if (preg_match('~^(Product#)$~', $field["comment"])) {
					return h($field["comment"]); // chosen field label Product# in select
				}
			}
			foreach ((array) $_GET["where"] as $key => $where) {
				if ($where["col"] == $field["field"] && ($key >= 0 || $where["val"] != "")) {
					return h($field["comment"]);
				}
			}
			return "";

  • Different number of records in listing and select choices:
		function selectLimitProcess() {
			return (isset($_GET["limit"]) ? $_GET["limit"] : "20");
		}

		function selectLimitPrint($limit) {
			echo "<fieldset><legend>" . lang('Limit') . "</legend><div>"; // <div> for easy styling
			echo html_select("limit", array("", "20", "50", "100"), $limit);
			echo "</div></fieldset>\n";
		}
