  • It doesn’t matter what dashboard your web host uses (Plesk, cPanel, etc.). All that is necessary is either:

    1. It has Fantastico so that you can do a “one click” install of WordPress. (This isn’t the better solution because often, Fantastico hasn’t kept up with WP so that it is not installing the *latest* version of WP.)

    OR

    2. It has the ability for you to create a new MySQL database. This will enable you to do a manual install of WP which IMHO is the better solution because you have complete control over what version is being installed and you always want the latest and greatest.

    Once WP is installed, you use an FTP program (Cute FTP, Filezilla, WSFTP, etc.) to FTP plugins and themes to their respective directories (folders) within the /wp-content folder.

    HTH.

    what is fantastico ? …
    where i can get it ???
    my computer wont operate filezilla … so i wanna use the first way

    Check your web host account for login to your web hosting management console. If they use cPanel, it’s there. Do you even have WP installed at this point? And if so, how?

    You are using WordPress.com This forum is for standalone, self-hosted versions of WP. Wrong forum, sorry.
