This guide intends to walk you through every step of a WordPress install. It was designed with NearlyFreeSpeech.NET hosting in mind, but may be helpful on other hosts as well.<\/p>\n
Want an even faster way of installing WordPress? You can try the steps here<\/a> if your server already has the wp cli installed. (You can run To get the latest install files for WordPress and unzip the wordpress folder.<\/li>\n To delete the zipped folder.<\/li>\n To copy the contents of the unzipped WordPress directory to the\u00a0root directory of your server. You might have to use a path different than To delete the unzipped WordPress directory.<\/li>\n to begin editing the WordPress config file. The section of the file that you’ll focus on editing looks like this:<\/p>\nwp --info<\/code> to see if your server has the wp cli.)<\/p>\n
