• I’ve installed mamp on my mac and I’m ready to download WordPress. I’m following the directions on Codex which I am quoting here.

    “Step 2: Basic MAMP Settings Step 2: Basic MAMP Settings . . .

    Lastly, on the Apache tab, you’ll need to set a document root. This is where all of your files are going to be for your local web server. An example of a document root is /Users/USERNAME/Sites/wordpress/.”


    I just used the default that was already in the box applications/MAMP/htdocs

    “Step 4: Downloading and Installing WordPress
    Now it’s time to download WordPress. Once you’ve downloaded and unzipped the WordPress download, open up the “wordpress” folder. Click and drag all of the files from the wordpress folder to your MAMP document root (I use /Users/USERNAME/Sites/wordpress/).”

    Is this where I put the wordpress files? (applications/MAMP/htdocs)
