OTHER HELPFUL INFORMATION

Create A Database for WordPress

1. Inside the Control Panel Engine, Scroll Down and click the icon “MySQL Database Wizard”.Follow the instructions to create a Database: Name, User, and Password something similar to this.
   
2. The “url_ ” should already be filled with your information just create a name, user and generate a password. 
      Database Name:      url_name
      Database Username:        url_username
      Password:      Jkl67pg@3 
3. Once you create this database name with a user and password, you will then insert this information during the framework install below
   
4. FYI The database will store all your content ( image paths and text ) while the framework with allow you and the public to interact with the database of content and the framework needs the username, password and name of the database to put and get content.

Connect WordPress To Database

1. By default the wordpress framework is loaded in your public_html directory, but is not connected to the database (see above). To finish the Framework install follow directions below.
2. Open wp-admin/install.php in your browser. It will take you through the process to set up a wp-config.php file with your database connection details.
   1. If for some reason this doesn’t work, don’t worry. Open up wp-config-sample.php with a text editor like WordPad or similar and fill in your database connection details.
   2. Save the file as wp-config.php and upload it.
   3. Open wp-admin/install.php in your browser.
3. Once the configuration file is set up, the installer will set up the tables needed for your blog. If there is an error, double check your wp-config.php file, and try again. If it fails again, please go to the support forums with as much data as you can gather.
4. If you did not enter a password, note the password given to you. If you did not provide a username, it will be admin.
5. The installer should then send you to the login page. Sign in with the username and password you chose during the installation. If a password was generated for you, you can then click on ‘Profile’ to change the password.

WordPress Theme Template Changes

If you have customized your theme templates, you may have to make some changes across major versions.

Online WordPress Resources

If you have any questions that aren’t addressed in this document, please take advantage of WordPress’ numerous online resources:The WordPress Codex The Codex is the encyclopedia of all things WordPress. It is the most comprehensive source of information for WordPress available. The WordPress Blog This is where you’ll find the latest updates and news related to WordPress. Recent WordPress news appears in your administrative dashboard by default. WordPress Planet The WordPress Planet is a news aggregator that brings together posts from WordPress blogs around the web. WordPress Support Forums If you’ve looked everywhere and still can’t find an answer, the support forums are very active and have a large community ready to help. To help them help you be sure to use a descriptive thread title and describe your question in as much detail as possible. WordPress IRC Channel There is an online chat channel that is used for discussion among people who use WordPress and occasionally support topics. The above wiki page should point you in the right direction. (irc.freenode.net #wordpress)

XML–RPC and Atom Interface

You can post to your WordPress blog with tools like Windows Live Writer, Ecto, w.bloggar, Radio Userland (which means you can use Radio’s email-to-blog feature), NewzCrawler, and other tools that support the blogging APIs! 🙂 You can read more about XML–RPC support on the Codex.

Post to WordPress via Email

You can post from an email client! To set this up go to your “Writing” options screen and fill in the connection details for your secret POP3 account. Then you need to set up wp-mail.php to execute periodically to check the mailbox for new posts. You can do it with cron-jobs, or if your host doesn’t support it you can look into the various website-monitoring services, and make them check your wp-mail.php URL.

Posting is easy: Any email sent to the address you specify will be posted, with the subject as the title. It is best to keep the address discrete. The script will delete emails that are successfully posted.

WordPress User Roles

We introduced a very flexible roles system in version 2.0. You can read more about Roles and Capabilities on the Codex.

Final Notes

• If you have any suggestions, ideas, or comments, or if you (gasp!) found a bug, join us in the Support Forums.
• WordPress has a robust plugin API that makes extending the code easy. If you are a developer interested in utilizing this, see the plugin documentation in the Codex. You shouldn’t modify any of the core code.

Share the Love

WordPress has no multi-million dollar marketing campaign or celebrity sponsors, but we do have something even better—you. If you enjoy WordPress please consider telling a friend, setting it up for someone less knowledgable than yourself, or writing the author of a media article that overlooks us.
