Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Web homepage showing, not blogHi,
In your folder, that you’ve installed the wordpress blog, gather it is on the same folder as your website?
The site http://www.hammocksonline.co.nz here there, however, you won’t the see the blog, because it’ll display the http://www.hammocksonline.co.nz webpage,
Do you want to have the blog other write your website? You can remove the website.
If so: (here is my disclaimer: make sure you back up your website: I am not responisble if your files go missing ok?)
But safer option is to create a hyperlink linking to your blog. So install wordpress in a folder called blog, and create the blog online, once you are ready to launch the blog include a hyperlink to your bglog from your website.
I help this helps. I would suggest go with the latter option

In reply to: Adding wp-database from web host to local hostHi There,
I’ve got the wp-database plugin installed, and the I’ve placed this onto my blog, however, MyPHPadmin says I need to drop the wpcomments table.
This case I get the infamous “Error connecting to database”.
The second thing I’ve tried is creating a new database and uploading the wp-database from your online into this new database.
I get a white screen when I load it locally.
One of my mates is a database designer and he said ensure that the languages from the SQL is the same from your hosting to the local host. I’ll give that a try.
I’ve also tried copying the entire online blog into localhost. And just says error connecting to the database.
Thanks
