Dropping Unique constraint from MySQL table

A unique constraint is also an index.

First use SHOW INDEX FROM tbl_name to find out the name of the index. The name of the index is stored in the column called key_name in the results of that query.

Then you can use DROP INDEX:

DROP INDEX index_name ON tbl_name

or the ALTER TABLE syntax:

ALTER TABLE tbl_name DROP INDEX index_name

You can DROP a unique constraint from a table using phpMyAdmin as requested as shown in the table below. A unique constraint has been placed on the Wingspan field. The name of the constraint is the same as the field name, in this instance.
