FAQ 4.7

From PmaWiki

[edit] Authentication window is displayed more than once, why?

This happens if you are using a URL to start phpMyAdmin which is different than the one set in your $cfg['PmaAbsoluteUri']. For example, a missing "www", or entering with an IP address while a domain name is defined in the config file.

You should leave the PmaAbsoluteUri configuration directive blank.
