 * Hi everyone, my 1st post. My 1st day on WP.
 * The guide says ” The WordPress setup process will create a wp-config.php file
   for you based on the information you provide.
 * You can manually create a wp-config.php file by locating the sample file named
   wp-config-sample.php (located in the root install-directory), editing it as required,
   and then saving it as wp-config.php.”
 * If I’ve already installed Bluehost as Host and WP Admin, would this mean the 
   setup process has created this file? I can see something in the Bluehost file
   manager.
    aany help greatly received, thanks Nick
