Wordpress Installation 2.7 my way

Well first things first you have to set up a server and a website domain name to host your files, preferably one that will allow you to use the MySql databases and one that has SMTP enabled. I used

I had to pay about $50 for start up in my case because I wanted two databases for photos and logins. In my case I could have used the .zip to upload but I forgot that you could do that -Dummy. Anyway I figured it out and started on my journey. So Take the .zip file from Wordpress.org Ver. 2.7 and upload it to your website via the browse folder application in the file manager section. Then what you need to do is create a database in your 100webspace admin page

Once you have that set up you should get an email that contains that information that is in the form:

Your new MySQL database is active now. MySQL settings and other database parameters are below:

username: username

password: password

database name: yourdbname

database host: localhost

database port: 3306

These parameters must be configured in your PHP/Perl/CGI scripts that use the database. Best Regards, 100 Web Space Team

In the “wp-config-sample.php” file in the wordpress 2.7 files you need to change the following code so that you can access your database.

// ** MySQL settings – You can get this info from your web host ** // /** The name of the database for WordPress */ define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘yourdbname‘); /** MySQL database username */ define(‘DB_USER’, ‘username‘); /** MySQL database password */ define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘password‘); /** MySQL hostname */ define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost:3306‘); In other words for 100webspace.com it is “mysql2.100ws.com:3306” /** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */ define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8′); /** The Database Collate type. Don’t change this if in doubt. */ define(‘DB_COLLATE’, ”);

******* You need to change this so that it will work completely*******

/**#@+ * Authentication Unique Keys. * * Change these to different unique phrases! * You can generate these using the {@link http://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/ WordPress.org secret-key service} * * @since 2.6.0 */ define(‘AUTH_KEY’, ‘put your unique phrase here‘); define(‘SECURE_AUTH_KEY’, ‘put your unique phrase here‘); define(‘LOGGED_IN_KEY’, ‘put your unique phrase here‘); define(‘NONCE_KEY’, ‘put your unique phrase here‘); /**#@-*/

After that you should be able to access your site and be able to start blogging. I have the following plugins for my website/blog:
