Installing Wordpress on Web Hosting - June 12th 7PM - ish
Tuesday, June 12th, 2007, after Doc releases his deathgrip on the podium, I’ll be doing a live session on installing Wordpress blogging software during the TBCS Internet Development SIG,
Wordpress is a customizable blogging application that is run on a web server (this blog is currently using Wordpress).
It supports installable Themes that allow you to choose from many color settings and page layouts. Many themes support widgets which extend the functionality of the application as well as personalizing the content on the sidebars.
Many users load it on a LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) server, however it works just as well on a WIMP? (Windows, IIS, MySQL, PHP) server.
This blog and the live install and setup will be demonstrated on a Windows hosting server.
We’ll cover where to get the FREE Wordpress software, setting up the hosting account, creating the database, installing the software, configuring and customizing, installing themes, plugins/widgets and more!
