MAMP and Wordpress: installing on your computer locally for easy testing
Hey guys, I did a bit of creative googling and found this site: Installing MAMP and Wordpress
Its obviously only for macs, so unfortunately this wont help you out susanna, but this is pretty quick and easy so if you want to get a local wordpress server setup this will do it. If this was covered during the workshop I wasn’t at this thursday then excuse my ignorance. the only thing that messed up with me was when you click on install near the end, I had to go back and manually edit the wp_config.php file because it had added localhost:8889:8889 instead of localhost:8889. I also changed the root directory to my Sites folder in my main user directory. Other than that it worked and its seriously MUCH easier to do it locally then upload the folder when the site is done. Hope this helps you guys.
