 * Could you provide a little more info on how to get this plugin setup initially?
   I have a database with all the info populated, but I’m not sure:
    1) what folder
   to upload specifically 2) what info to enter in the “host” area
 * Thanks for the help!

 * Once you download and unzip the plugin, you need to upload the _powerpress-posts-
   from-mysql_ folder into your plugins directory ( wp-content/plugins ), then activate
   the plugin.
 * If the database resides on the same server as your WordPress install, host should
   be _localhost_. It will work with remote databases as well.
 * This plugin has been dormant for some time now. I apologize for the delayed response.
   I’m trying to get this rewritten from the ground up, but it’s had to take the
   backseat to more pressing matters. Let me know if you still have any questions
   or any ideas about how to improve it.
