Support » Installing WordPress » Installation

  • I refer to your “Installation: Famous 5-minute install” page and the wp-config-sample.php file which it says must be filled in. I have to say that this is a deeply un-user-friendly document, which brought me close to giving up the whole thing up as a bad job.

    Be that as it may, could you please clarify what are the “username” and “password” values. Are they the host’s username and password, or the WordPress username and password or something else?

    There appears to be no customer support facility as such, so I assume that this forum is the only place to make this enquiry.
