# Help with php…

 * I currently have a website hosted by godaddy.com, edited with dreamweaver. After
   much research, I thought that the best way to integrate a blog, would be to download
   wordpress. I set up a mysql and a php (you can probably tell that I barely know
   what I am talking about), but come to a halt when I attempt to install wordpress.
   It says it cannot find the wp-config.php or that something may be wrong with 
   it. Does anyone have any ideas as to what I could possibly be overlooking?

 * Since you are installing WordPress manually, you need to create and configure
   the wp-config.php file.
 * Basically what you do is duplicate the wp-config-sample.php that was uploaded
   with the rest of WordPress, rename it to wp-config.php and edit it with the needed
   info. (where your MySQL database is located. it’s password, etc.)

   Just scroll down to step 3.
 * Hope this helps. 😀
