I solved it!
For anyone who has the same problem and stumble across this post, I found the solution here: Database manager and remote connections
I can see that it has been said a thousand times before, but you guys really need better documentation and video tutorials. I’ve never been this frustrated starting out with a new platform/product. And if I wasn’t so desperate to get my agency away from Webflow, I would have given up a long time ago 
Just an idea @George, but I would gladly pay 300-500 euro to get a crash course. Maybe something to think about as a service in the future 
Anyway, excited about finally getting started now
