Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: What is “feed:http: etc.” and why is it broken?Feed is a protocol for RSS feed readers. It’s similar to https:// for web browsers. If you have installed a feed reader that supports the feed: protocol, it would open up and read from the RSS feed. Since you got an error page, you most likely don’t have one installed.

In reply to: Theme code orders links in order of creationUse get_links_list instead of wp_get_links. If you use:
<?php get_links_list('name'); ?>
It should give you a list of links in alphabetical order.Forum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: wp_list_cats woesFrom the Codex article on wp_list_cats, I’d say you’d want:
<?php wp_list_cats('children=1&hierarchical=1&hide_empty=0'); ?>
.This string should display your list of categories with the children categories indented and all categories will be displayed (regardless of whether there are posts in the categories).

In reply to: Blog looks like a listIP Addresses in the following blocks are considered “private” and cannot be routed across the internet:
10.0.0.0 – 10.255.255.255
172.16.0.0 – 172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0 – 192.168.255.255From looking at your site’s source code, it looks like you’ve setup (in WP’s admin panel) your “WordPress address (URI):” and/or “Blog address (URI):” as https://192.168.0.5/blog/. You need to change this to https://www.asifebrahim.homeip.net/blog/ in order for your site to show up correctly outside your home network.

In reply to: Image Paths in 1.5If you’re using Apache’s mod_rewrite rules for cleaner permalinks (e.g. https://example.com/wp/archive/2005/06/09/postslug/ vs. https://example.com/wp/index.php?p=27) then the relative path will change depending on how the user got to the post. This being the case, you’re better off putting in the absolute path any images you add to a post.

In reply to: How do I get PHP and MySQL?A backtick is the lower-case character on the tilda key in the upper left of standard keyboards. The backtick looks something like a backwards apostrophe.
As for your main question, you can get PHP & MySQL from PHP.net and MySQL.com; however if that’s your level of expertise you might want to try something like MAMP: Mac – Apache – MySQL – PHP.
