1 00:00:00,420 --> 00:00:05,730 Now in order to do the WordPress install you are going to need some information and you'll probably 2 00:00:05,730 --> 00:00:08,640 need that information from your hosting company. 3 00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:13,090 You were going to go to your domain that com and when I say your domain. 4 00:00:13,110 --> 00:00:17,730 That's obviously the domain where you're going to be putting your WordPress site dot com or dot net 5 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:22,400 or whatever your domain is and you're going to type in forward slash see panel. 6 00:00:22,450 --> 00:00:27,720 Now you'll then be prompted for a hosting password and a hosting user name. 7 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:30,280 Now you may have to get that information again from your host. 8 00:00:30,330 --> 00:00:35,300 And then once you have it you want to enter that information into the log in screen and then you'll 9 00:00:35,310 --> 00:00:42,720 be brought to the C panel screen and I'll show you that right now you are now looking at C panel. 10 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:48,290 And typically what you want to do is you'll want to scroll down through C panel and you want to look 11 00:00:48,290 --> 00:00:53,360 in the software and services for an icon that says Fantastico deluxe. 12 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:58,770 Now you might see other icons you may not see Fantastico you may see something different. 13 00:00:58,850 --> 00:01:05,270 You want to make sure that when you click inside a Fantastico or whatever your software service is that 14 00:01:05,270 --> 00:01:06,870 you're going to see WordPress. 15 00:01:06,890 --> 00:01:09,790 So we're going to go ahead and click Fantastico deluxe. 16 00:01:09,790 --> 00:01:17,100 Now and we get there you're going to notice that you have lots of installations that you could do. 17 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:21,470 But the one we're going to be most concerned with is going to be Wordpress and you'll see that right 18 00:01:21,470 --> 00:01:26,060 there on the left side menu now that you're ready to start installing your Web site. 19 00:01:26,090 --> 00:01:28,130 You're going to go and click WordPress 20 00:01:30,690 --> 00:01:35,520 WordPress is going to give you the option to start a new installation and that is what you were going 21 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:35,910 to do. 22 00:01:35,910 --> 00:01:42,830 You're going to click this link that says new installation when you do that then WordPress is going 23 00:01:42,830 --> 00:01:44,410 to give you some options. 24 00:01:44,450 --> 00:01:50,180 It's going to allow you to install Wordpress in a sub directory and you can certainly do that. 25 00:01:50,210 --> 00:01:53,630 And that's one of the benefits of being able to use fantastico. 26 00:01:53,810 --> 00:02:00,010 And even using Wordpress we could theoretically install Wordpress across our domain in many sub directories 27 00:02:00,650 --> 00:02:06,200 but in this particular case we're just going to focus on one when you come to the screen. 28 00:02:06,300 --> 00:02:12,960 You are going to be given a choice by WordPress to either install Wordpress in the domain where it will 29 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:19,500 be the root domain or you can install it in a sub directory if you want to install it in a sub directory 30 00:02:19,510 --> 00:02:24,730 all you'll need to do is you'll need to put the sub directory here where it says install in directory. 31 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:30,290 If you just wanted to be installed on the domain name you want WordPress to take up the entire domain. 32 00:02:30,450 --> 00:02:34,880 Then all you need to do is just leave this blank and then continue to process. 33 00:02:34,950 --> 00:02:41,550 Now what you want to do right now is that you are then going to want to put a user name for the administrator 34 00:02:41,550 --> 00:02:47,430 and this is what's going to allow you to log into wordpress as well as a password and then you're going 35 00:02:47,430 --> 00:02:49,500 to give your admin a nickname. 36 00:02:49,500 --> 00:02:54,540 So this is what your admin will appear as when you're posting on your WordPress site you're going to 37 00:02:54,540 --> 00:03:00,390 write in an email address and you want this email address to be one where you get mail or that you don't 38 00:03:00,390 --> 00:03:05,820 have a lot of problems with spam because you do want to get things WordPress if something is happening 39 00:03:05,820 --> 00:03:11,120 with the site and there is a way for you to be notified you want to make sure that that email address 40 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,500 is one that works writing in the site name. 41 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:20,160 Obviously we're going to write in the site name but this is something that we can we can change later 42 00:03:20,490 --> 00:03:22,710 as well as a description here. 43 00:03:22,710 --> 00:03:29,670 Now for purposes of this tutorial what I'm going to do is I'm going to create a directory and I'm going 44 00:03:29,670 --> 00:03:34,170 to call it test WP Directory OK. 45 00:03:34,170 --> 00:03:39,410 You can install it in a directory if you want and again you can just install it across the entire domain. 46 00:03:39,780 --> 00:03:45,500 So let's go ahead and type some information here so I have a test directory. 47 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:50,500 I'm also going to write in an administrator name and I'm going to write in a password an administrator 48 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:51,730 nickname. 49 00:03:51,730 --> 00:03:54,780 OK I've now written in some information there. 50 00:03:54,910 --> 00:03:59,420 And what I'm going to do now is I'm actually going to go ahead and put a site name in here. 51 00:03:59,470 --> 00:04:01,300 I'm just going to call it test directory 52 00:04:05,180 --> 00:04:09,080 and then I'm going to give it a description test for wordpress course 53 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:16,100 once we've done that. 54 00:04:16,100 --> 00:04:21,080 Then we can actually click the button to install Wordpress and that is what we're going to do right 55 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:26,320 now you're now going to be given an intermediate step that you can click. 56 00:04:26,330 --> 00:04:28,750 Finished installation and that's all you're gonna have to do 57 00:04:31,860 --> 00:04:36,440 and then once you've done that then WordPress is going to be installed and what you're going to want 58 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:44,140 to do then is you're going to want to go to your directory so that you can log in we can then write 59 00:04:44,140 --> 00:04:52,100 in our user name and our password and then we can just click a log in. 60 00:04:52,280 --> 00:04:58,520 Then once we log in we are now inside of our WordPress dashboard and we're now ready to start working 61 00:04:58,820 --> 00:05:01,700 on our site OK. 62 00:05:01,740 --> 00:05:05,070 So with that thanks and I will see you in another video.
