# Subdomain WordPress Login?

 * I am currently using WordPress for the CMS of my personal Website. What I am 
   trying to do is install WordPress for one of my Subdomain’s. I just want something
   very basic here (have done this previously to a different Subdomain). I know 
   I have to copy all the WordPress files into my Subdomain folder using an FTP 
   client. I guess my question is how do I then login to the dashboard for THIS 
   Subdomain? What is the URL that I visit to enter the login info? What is my Username&
   Password?
 * I know it’s possible as I have done it in the past. It’s just been too long!
 * Thanks.

 * Maybe I missed a step then. What I did was just copy all the files (from my desktop)
   when I download WordPress a long time ago. I didn’t actually enter new information
   on the web anywhere…

 * If you have all files and folders in sub domain name and did not run install 
   program then run install program.

 * You must have got a old version of wordpress then if you do not have any data
   then is best to install the latest version
