This is a successful test of wordpress on cwahi.net and this sticky post will always appear at the top of this particular wordpress.
If you have already installed wordpress on your cwahi.net site, please peruse the sidebar for issues you have probably encountered. If you have not yet installed your wordpress, please read on.
To install wordpress on cwahi.net, first create a database (go to “databases” in your admin area of cwahi.net)
Copy the settings information into a text editor (notepad) You’ll need this information for your config file.
Download the latest stable version of wordpress to your desktop. Unzip it.
Definitely, use “copy and paste” when creating your config.php Open wp-config-sample.php in a text editor (notepad). Look for the following:
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define('DB_NAME', 'put_your_db_name_here');
/** MySQL database username */
define('DB_USER', 'put_your_username_here');
/** MySQL database password */
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'put_your_db_password_here');
/** MySQL hostname */
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
You will find the database names and password by logging in to your cwahi.net account and selecting the “databases” link near the top of the page.
You will have to change each of the parts that are in bold. Remember, the database host (along with the other database names you need) is listed under “databases” in your account. That is the one you should use rather than “localhost” (99% of the time “localhost” works but the other 1%, it does not. We are in the 1%.)
/** MySQL hostname */
define('DB_HOST', 'put_your_database_host_here');
Remember that passwords and names ARE case sensitive.
Save this file as “wp-config.php” and upload it via ASCII to your wordpress folder.
Upload all the other WordPress files to your wordpress folder (ensure that images are uploaded via BINARY and all other files are uploaded via ASCII)
