First time installation

  • Hi I have downloaded the latest wordpress.zip. I think I need a cpannel as well. I have a website and I have created a sub-domain.

    I can up load but do I need to do anything else. The downloaded WP has no cpannel.

    So a simple help here. I can transfer the downloaded and extracted WP files. It has an index.php does this create an installation?

  • Do you mean Cpanel like in your service providers cpanel
    where you can manage your account?

    A lot of providers have a “one click install” on wordpress.
    Then use that one.

    If not:
    Installing wordpress can help you.

    You need to upload and install your WP files.

    Do you want to install WordPres on your sub-domain?

    If so, upload WordPress files to your sub-domain, create a database, edit wp-config.php and then visit your sub-domain from your browser and start the installation.

    Hi Potuatail,
    As Robrun and HostPuma suggested, you can work manually without C-panel support. Because WordPress Zip file does not have to be working with C-Panel.

    C-Panel is designed by host companies for users of WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, etc, etc.

    What is C-panel?
    “A web-based control panel makes site management a piece of cake. Empower your customers and offer them the ability to administer every facet of their website using simple, point-and-click software.”

    Have fun with WordPress!
