Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Starting Word PressThanks for that link miklb, it should prove very helpful. I finaly figured out what they meant in the instructions to open the install.php file in a browser ha ha. You think they mean clicking on the file and it will open, all that does is trigger your html editor. This is what they mean.
” http://www.example.com/wordpress/admin/install.php ” now that works, except I get a 404 error. Owell, back to the drawing board.Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Starting Word PressAmen to that!! The installation instructions are far from clear to anyone who is not a programmer. I am sure they get many complaints from beginners on this subject. When I install wordpress thru my service provider, it pops right thru the steps and is up an running in short order. when installing wordpress from a download to the server, you just as well kiss that sucker goodbye, its a gone’er!! It would be great if some, kind, generous developer would make an installation file with a ‘go’ button in it. I believe that with this done, wordpress would greatly increase it’s market penetration, and non geeks wouldn’t toss it in the recycle bin in frustration.
