ok. so i finally got through the advice you gave me and its made it worse. Now i cannot access my wp admin page. I can see the site if i am on the same network, but the site itself is messed up now too.

any advice???

Ross, thank you for the thorough response. I definitely want to do this. Mostly for educational purposes. I built a mining pc last year, and now im addicted to all things computer. I have no background in it, but it is a fascinating field. I’ve started taking courses with the idea of getting into the IT field.
This may not have been a great project for a beginner to try, but with help like yours i will get it figured out.
i will start working on it tonight.

Stevica…that is an awesome guide. I read the first part real quick. that guy has a unique knack of explaining really technical stuff in a easy to understand way. i will go through the whole series. Thanks a lot!

this is my wp-config.php file. im guessing it is correct, but i see a lot of the same kind of problems as mine on here and the first answer usually says it this file. I copy and pasted this then xxx my personal info. can anyone tell me if it is correct???
