In reply to: Can't Log In Or Reset My PasswordIf you have access to the database you can actually change your password by editing the
user_pass
field in thewp_users
table (‘wp_’ is the default prefix for table names, but don’t worry if it’s different for you) for the user you want to change.What you’ll want to do is use a MD5 generator, to take the password you want to use and generate a hash that you can put into your database.
If you use phpMyAdmin there is video showing how to do it step-by-step here

In reply to: wrong address connected to "home" buttonThat row of buttons on the top there is a Menu, and can be changed by going to Dashboard > Appearance > Menus. There is probably an item that says “Home” and you can change the URL there.

In reply to: Setup Email not ReceivedFrom what I can see here, you seemed to have purchased a domain name from Crazy Domains, and your web hosting service from HostGator. Though you haven’t married the two up yet (and thus you aren’t actually linking to a WordPress installation of any sort).
You’ll need to log in to your account with Crazy Domains and edit the nameserver (video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j4KtEypBejQ) for that domain name (colourfullearning.com.au) and change it to the one that HostGator provided you with (should have been given to you in your welcome e-mail, though you can contact them through live chat) [More Info on getting your HostGator nameserver].

In reply to: Second Site cannot get API(via Wordfence FAQ)
> How many Wordfence API keys do I need? One per site?
If you want to use the paid version of Wordfence, you need one API key per WordPress installation. However if you run WordPress multi-site, you only need one API key for the entire Multi-Site installation.
This may be a limitation of the free API key. Unless you’re able to implement it on the entire network instead of each site individually

In reply to: What next after installation?It seems that you only downloaded WordPress but you haven’t actually installed it yet. Clicking on any of the files won’t install it for you, but rather open it up in an editor (in your case it opened Microsoft Expressions)
All of those files inside are the pieces and parts that make WordPress work. The parts by themselves are useless until you put them on a server that will know what to do with them. Below is a link to more detailed instructions on how to go about doing that
