Hi All,
Happy New Year.
I did not install WordPress before on my QNAP but was wanting to do so.
COuld not find it either, so am very interested in the answer.
I did see downloads for WordPress of course, but not as a QPKG.
(was a ZIP or a tar.gz)
Would it be possible to install these without using a QPKG?
And if so, what should I download, the ZIP or the tar.gz?
Thank you
Hej Gerryw8,
I had the same problem but solved it.
Download WP from wordpress.org unpack to folder web on the nas, remember to edit the file “wp-config-sample.php” inside then rename it to wp-config.php. see below.
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘wordpress’);
/** MySQL database username */
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘xxxxxxx’); your name or user name
/** MySQL database password */
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘xxxxxxx’); your choosen pw
/** MySQL hostname */
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); usually localhost
Remember also to install phpmyadmin and set up a database and user.
That should be all, it worked fine for me.
PS. Hope it’s understandable.
PPS. You can use zip or the other as long you are able to unpack it.
Kind regards,

Hi icepirat,
HAPPY NEWYEAR
Appreciate this very much, thank you.
One more question, what should I download, the ZIP file or the tar.gz file?
Kind regards,

Hej Gerryw8,
Also a wish for a HAPPY NEWYEAR from me to you as well as to all users of this forum.
Regarding which to download will depend whether you have e.g. WINRAR or another similar program for unpacking.
WINRAR can handle most of zipped files.
If you may have other questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.
Kind regards,
icepirat
