donellisI'm having a little difficulty getting started.
I have four websites with the same host and wish to host four blogs in subdirectories under the hosts, like this:
http://www.blue.com/blog
http://www.green.com/blog
http://www.orange.com/blog
http://www.red.com/blog
Although I understand I can upload the WordPress files to the root directory, I've decided it will be cleaner to upload four copies to the four "blog" directories -- no problem, unlimited space.
I have tried uploading to "blog" but I see that my "install.php" file is expected in the "wp-admin" folder. Where does that come from? In unzipping the WordPress.zip, no subfolders are created,
My next venture was to create the "wp-admin" folder myself and move all the WordPress files to that folder. Still no luck finding the "install.php" file, following this installation advice: "If you installed into a subdirectory called blog, you would visit http://example.com/blog/wp-admin/install.php.
When I open "install.php", I see the syntax "../wp-admin/install.php" which means, if I'm typing in "http://www.blue.com/blog/wp-admin/install.php" as the instructions state, it wants to go up a directory? I am confused.
Three questions come to mind:
1. Where does the "my-admin" folder come from? Do you manually create it as I have?
2. Where do I put the WordPress files if I want my blog to be in "www.blue.com/blog"?
3. Do ALL files go into "blog" or "wp-admin"? Or are some in one and some in the other?
I'm stopping now before this becomes a book.
Thanks very much.
Don
