How to install a custom blog on wordpress

[Giggle]

Hi Warriors:

Hoping that someone can help. I am looking for videos or clear instructions (pdf file ETC) on how to install a custom blog that includes articles, plugins, images etc on wordpress using filezilla or similiar ftp client. I checked youtube but I am not getting exactly what I want. I was able to create the addon domain, create sql database and I tried to upload the rest of folders. However, when I enter my domain name in google, I am getting a 500 Internal Server.

You can get the info from Wordpress.org

Search there and you will find an answer. Also you can get support from wordpres support Forums.

Your title is confusing, sorry.

You do NOT install a blog on WordPress. You install the (blogging) script called WordPress and downloaded from wordpress.ORG to your own hosting service/server.
That is the only time when you need to use a FTP client: to upload the WP files.

The installed blog will be empty. Nothing on it, just a "Hello, World!" sample post.

Then you build your blog: adding posts, Pages. From the admin panel. Not via FTP.

HTH

Giggle - if your webhost provides fantastico of install central (I think that's what it's called) you can install WP from there in a couple of clicks. You'll find them in cpanel
