From these instructions:
Whether or not you mean to blog is a personal decision. For CampagnaPictures.com, I choose to have a blog. And so I poke on over to www.ads-software.com to download the latest version of WordPress. I then follow WordPress’ famous 5-minute installation guide to install my blog at https://campagnapictures.com/blog/.
Take note of that address, specifically that I am installing WordPress into a sub-folder of my domain: /blog/. This is our recommended procedure when creating a website to incorporate both WordPress and TTG elements.
The first step of this process necessitates that I create a database. To do this, I log into my Bluehost control panel, scroll down to the “Databases” section of icons, and choose “MySQL Databases”. If you’re not using Bluehost and are unsure how to create a database for your site, contact your host for assistance or consult their online knowledgebase.
Create a new database, then create a user for that database. After creating the user, remember to Add the user to the database! If your user and database are disconnecting, you won’t be able to login. Make note of your database name, and your user’s username and password. Write this stuff down! You will have need of it momentarily.
Proceed with the WordPress setup. It’s well documented, so there is no need for me to here explain the process in great detail. You will need to add your database name, username and password to the wp-config.php file as a part of the setup process.
After authorizing the wp-config.php file to access your database and copying the WordPress files to your /blog/ folder, you should then visit https://yourdomain.com/blog/ in your web-browser to start setting things up. It’s all pretty self explanatory, but you will probably want to disable the “Privacy: Allow my site to appear in search engines like Google and Technorati” item to begin with. We’re still in the design process, so we don’t really want Google to be sending people to our site-under-construction. We can change this setting later from within our WordPress setup, so disable it for now.
Finish the installation wizard, then login to your WordPress dashboard. We need to make some changes to our settings.
