Actually installing WordPress

“Famous 5-Minute Install”

Your new best friend!

What to do Install XAMPP Go to the XAMPP admin panel and open up the admin interface for Apache Click on phpMyAdmin on the left and create a new database Unzip WordPress. Put actual wordpress directory in the htdocs directory of Apache (most likely C:\xampp\htdocs) so that you end up with C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress.

Take a deep breath, the hard parts are over! You’re now ready to install WordPress! –Go to –Follow the wizard –Remember, if you have (properly!!) locked down MySQL, the username and password are not “root/no password”
