Introduction:
The final step before installing WordPress, and any template you are using, is to setup MySQL so that WordPress can “talk to” its database via its user. Click on the PDF Link for the full content of the post.
Prerequisites:
TechNote: 0-WordPress Install Sequence On XP Pro plus Reference Links
Note: If you are reading this install series for XP Pro and IIS 5.1 for the first time, it is highly recommended that you at least scan through the prior “pre-req” documents.
My Development Environment:
See TechNote: 0-WordPress Install Sequence On XP Pro plus Reference Links
Special Notes:
Trademark Note: the inclusion of screenshots, in this or other documents without a Trademark TM symbol by my “FromTheRanks” Blog-site Title or Logo does not imply these are not Trademarked. They are. These are early in-development screenshots taken before the TM was added.
Format Change: to accelerate the release of the WordPress TechNote series on www.fromtheranks.com, from TechNote 5a on I have changed the post content format. I have elected to provide basic introductory information only in the on-line post and the entire post (text and images) in the PDF version. Doing so allows me to publish (and update) the series far more quickly.
Hope this helps.
