 * Hey I am new to wordpress and I was wondering if someone could help me out. I
   want to be able to create a single page that will load different content depending
   on the link that was clicked. Basically its the same template and page but the
   information provided will be different depending on what link you clicked on.
 * Thanks

 * Hey,
 * You need to create your pages by going to your Dashboard, then Pages > Add New.
   
   Here’s more info about that: [http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages#Creating_Pages](http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages#Creating_Pages)
 * Then, on the page that you want to be your main page, create links to the other
   pages by selecting text and clicking the “Insert/edit link” icon in your editor.

 * I know how to create pages and links but what I would like to do is have a single
   page with multiple links inside of it and once you click on that link within 
   the same page new content will load. Im basically trying to be able to have all
   my content show in a clickable fashion but only using one page.

 * Hi,
 * Do you mean you want to load new content without reloading the whole page? Something
   like this?

 * You can do a search in the plugin directory using the search word “ajax” to find
   the plugin that will best suit your needs.

 * thanks this helps I was using wordpress.com but now I have ran into a new problem.
   Ive been trying to load xampp and wordpress but I can’t get it to work. I installed
   xampp created a new database called wordpress then created a new user with the
   name wordpress and password wordpress. I unzipped the latest wordpress and put
   the folder into the htdocs folder. I then changed the wp-config.php file so that
   database username and password all are wordpress. But when i try to run [http://localhost/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php](http://localhost/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php)
   i get an error
 * “Error establishing a database connection
    This either means that the username
   and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can’t 
   contact the database server at localhost. This could mean your host’s database
   server is down.
 * Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
    Are you sure that you
   have typed the correct hostname? Are you sure that the database server is running?
   If you’re unsure what these terms mean you should probably contact your host.
   If you still need help you can always visit the WordPress Support Forums.”
 * can someone help me get past this? Thanks so much.

 * Hi,
 * Make sure your wp-config.php file has “wordpress” as the DB_NAME and “localhost”
   as the DB_HOST like this:
 *     ```
       /** The name of the database for WordPress */
       define('DB_NAME', 'wordpress');
   
       /** MySQL database username */
       define('DB_USER', 'wordpress');
   
       /** MySQL database password */
       define('DB_PASSWORD', 'wordpress');
   
       /** MySQL hostname */
       define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
       ```
   
 * If that still gives you the error, go to your database (if you have phpmyadmin,
   it’s usually at [http://localhost/phpmyadmin](http://localhost/phpmyadmin) ),
   in the Users or Privileges tab and make sure the user “wordpress” has privileges
   to the database “wordpress”.
 * If you can’t get the privileges to work, you can also just create a new user (
   in phpmyadmin under Privileges or User tab) by clicking “Add User” then check
   the checkbox that says “Create database with same name and grant all privileges.”
   That will create a new database for you that will add a new user with all the
   proper privileges for that database. Make sure you update your wp-config.php 
   with the new database information and you should be good to go.
 * Hope that helps!
