    So I get this error:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/michro01/public_html/blog/wp-config.php on line 13

    I was assuming its because I have no idea if im supposed to fill this in, and what im supposed to put in there…

    define (‘WPLANG’, ”);

    Do I need to put anything in there?

    And line 13 is actually this:

    define(‘SECRET_KEY’, ‘mysecret’); // Change this to a unique phrase.

    I don’t see whats wrong. Anybody? Does that secret phrase have to be something specific?

    What all this has to do with index.php as stated in your title?

    No, if you blog in English, no need to put anything in the LANG(uage) line.

    There must be some typo in your line #13. How were you editing the file? What editor?

    Because when I got to install.php thats what it says? I was just changing it in notepad.

    Didnt I read somewhere that somebody on this site will install it for you? Where do I sign up for that?

    For now, can somebody please send me an example of there config file?

    http://install4free.wordpress.net/ for the instillation service.

    Check out the wp-config-sample.php file included with wordpress. The only lines you need to update are 3,4,5 (maybe 6 depending on your host) & 13 (update it with your secret key) . I also recommend changing 16 for security reasons to something a bit more random (instead of wp_ using d837_wp_8hb_. Don’t make any other changes and you should be all set.
    Finally, be careful typing.
