    I really wish these descriptions were more accurate and updated. This statement that “User/USERNAME/Sites/wordpress” is an example that will get the WordPress file in the right location, is totally misleading.

    Ravin,

    Thanks. I actually went back into my Mac and uninstalled all my MAMP installs, started again and followed the instructions for installing WordPress on a MAMP server. Everything worked almost as described, except for the database name which changed from “wordpress” to “wordpresstest” in the description. That, and an instruction that states that WordPress files should be dragged into a file named “User/USERNAME/Sites/wordpress” instead of just stating that WordPress can be dragged into “htdocs” on the MAMP server and then, you are on your way.

    Guy
