i still can't get it..ftp looks complicated and my cpanel looks non-existence.. anyone willing to help to set my wordpress in my newly aquired hosting?
Hi. If you are using cPanel then check if there is Fantastico available. If Fantastico is available and WordPress is included then it should be quite easy to install from there.
Even if you don`t have cpanel, you might have a wordpress auto installer in the control panel. If not, I could help you set it up, it is really easy.
If you have Fantastico it should be a breeze, if not then you'll need to FTP the files and install manually. If you use firefox, get the FireFTP plugin and install it. Set up your account user details, you should have received your FTP login details in an email from your host when you bought hosting from them. This gives you a nice easy to use (IMO) FTP program right there in your browser. Then download Wordpress from Wordpress.org, unzip it into a folder on your desktop. Connect to your hosting account and upload the WP folder into the folder where you want to install it. Set up the database that it will install to using MySQL controls in your cpanel. Then run the WP install program following the directions at http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress You could ofcourse pay someone to do it for you, but it might be better to do it yourself, because you'll learn in the process and be able to do it again yourself in the future. You can post questions here and people will help you if you get stuck. Good luck!
don't u have fantastico deluxe? If not its simple download wordpress software from wordpress.com/download and upload all the files on ur server and follow instructions inside readme file. then run index.php
