very critical
it’s WordPress’ absolute path to the WordPress directory
and is used to include files among other things
thanks! I thought that was what it was for! it was in the sample wp-config.php file but NOT in the technical guide. I’m new to this.
are you familiar with the wp-config.php file?
is it looking for a specific file?
HELP! I filled in the requested sections of the wp-config.php and uploaded it as it said to for the upgrade to 2.7 and NOW I can’t access my blog at all. I just get a database error. Please someone help?
See if the following video helps you isolate the problem.

it is in the wordpress root – whatever folder you installed to
just download it – open and edit with notepad – save – upload
Hi Samboll,
I upgraded to the new theme thesis 1.5.1.
I ask because my site http://www.thehousedog.com is not showing up after i did the wordpress upgrade to 2.8.1 and the thesis upgrade to 1.5.1.
I keep getting this error:
Safari can’t open the page “http://thehousedog.com/” because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection, which sometimes occurs when the server is busy. You might be able to open the page later.
I uninstalled the theme and it was still doing it. I them downgraded back to wordpress 2.8 and it’s still doing it.
Any suggestions?
Also…when I go to http://www.thehousedog.com/index.html I get an error on my site that says the page cannot be found.
I’m guessing this is the reason why I can’t access my site. I checked the index.html file in my file manager on go daddy and it’s blank. Should it be?
I’m not familiar with code and use wordpress because it makes it easier, so any simple explanation as to what I need to do would be GREATLY appreciated.
At this point I’m afraid to do an uninstall and install and lose all my data.
Hello, I am trying to Install Google XML sitemap plugin. It tells me to install the directory in the same directory where by wp-config.php.
I went through all my directories. I cannot find wp-config.php file. In which directory does this file reside? My wordpress blog is hosted at Bluehost. If my blog is remotely hosted, does that mean that I don’t have a wp-config.php file?
I am a novice at all of this. Please dont mind if my question is too rudimentary.
wp-config.php will be in the directory into which you made your initial install. If you installed WordPress in public_html, then wp-config.php will be in public_html. If you installed it in another directory, eg. public_html/somedirectory, then it will be in that directory beneath public_html.
