How to Install Wordpress on a Dedicated Server





Manual installation
1. If you don't have CPanel, use your web host control panel to log into phpMyAdmin, a MySQL interface. After entering the phpMyAdmin interface, Wordpress.org explains its installation. See if there is already a pre-made Wordpress database. If not, click 'Create' in the Create New Database field and name it Wordpress.
2. Click on 'Home' in the left corner. Click 'Privileges.' If there no Wordpress user in the drop-down menu, click 'Add New User' and name it Wordpress. Create and enter a password using the text field and leave all options under default.

3. Return to the 'Privileges' screen and click 'Check Privileges' for the Wordpress user. Click 'Check All' to give the user all needed permissions. Click 'Go.'
4. Return to your web host control panel to log into your file manager. Go to the 'public html' section and create a folder called Wordpress. Make sure the file has 777 permission by checking the file permission, which should be located in a drop-down menu in the bar above the file content.
5. Use your FTP client on your computer to upload the contents of the Wordpress directory in the Wordpress program file to the Wordpress folder you created in public html.
6. To install Wordpress, open a web browser such as Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox or Chrome and enter your domain name in the url with the path set at wp-admin/install.php. If your domain name is www.strawberryfields.com you would enter http://www.strawberryfields.com/wp-admin/install.php
7. On the installation screen put Wordpress as the name of the database and username and enter the password you created earlier as the password. Do not change the 'Database Host' or 'Table Prefix' slot.
8. On the next screen, input the domain name of your website and create a username and password for entering the Wordpress administration area. Input your email. Now your installation is complete.
