    Hi. I’ve just updated to wordpress version 4.1. I noticed that there were 2 wp-config files after I updated to the latest version. 1 being wp-config, which is the original when I first installed wordpress and the other being wp-config-sample which was uploaded into the public html after the update. Is it okay for me to delete the wp-config-sample file? I see no purpose having 2 wp-config files.

    Hi
    Yes you can delete it. It’s fine.
    You can observed when you install wordpress (Not directly upgrade WP), it gives you a sample file of config.
    You can rename it as wp-config or copy that file and then rename as wp-config.
