- Setup a mysql database for wordpress. To do this you will need to login to your hosting control panel and follow the instructions provided by your hosting provider of how to setup a MYSQL database. The login for your hosting control panel was created in Hosting Setup. We have additionally provided an example of how to do this in PLESK, which is a commonly used hosting control panel .(MySQL setup)
- Open notepad on your computer, notepad is text editor and is located in All Programs / Accessories / notepad. Then open the wp-config-sample.php file. This is located in the wordpress files you downloaded in 1.
- Once you have opened wp-config-sample.php fill in your database details created in 4. See below, insert the database name inbetween the ‘..’ by writing over ‘putyourdbnamehere’, make sure you leave the ‘..’ as these are important. Do the same for database username and database username password.
------Excerpt from WP-CONFIG-SAMPLE.php--------------------------
/ ** MySQL settings – You can get this info from your web host ** //
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘putyourdbnamehere’);
/** MySQL database username */
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘usernamehere’);
/** MySQL database password */
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘yourpasswordhere’);
