    No, the email I received was from WordPress.com – I recently registered there, not sure of the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org. I confused the old registration email there with a new one pertaining to the recent blog installation.

    When I click on the “lost password” link at my login URL, it informs me that my mail() function seems broken – For this reason, I do not think I ever received a registration email from boss-fight.com.

    Is there a work-around, or do I absolutely need to overhaul my server’s php to support the mail() function?

    I ran wp-admin/install.php.

    I believe that my server doesn’t support the php mail() function.

    Is there an easy temporary workaround to somehow view / edit the admin info, just to get started?

    Good to know. I received some kind of confirmation email from WordPress.com right when I finished installing, so I was confused.

    Is my account info in the config file I set up? Or stored in the database I set up? I don’t recall directly creating WordPress login info for my site and I’m at a loss.

    I can login to the admin panel on wordpress.com, but it says I have no site to post to, view or modify.

    I seems like it wants me to login with a separate login specific to my own server, but I don’t believe that I was ever asked to create that account during the installation. Is this correct?

    Yes, it installed, but the standard index.php was replaced by the theme’s index.php… which breaks it for some reason? I replaced the standard index.php and it works with the basic starting template now.

    I’ve run into a new problem, though. My blog is not accepting my login info; “username invalid”.

    I just created this username for this site; is there some way to link usernames to blogs that I missed?

    edit: I tried to retrieve a new password for the second time and now I get this:

    “The e-mail could not be sent.
    Possible reason: your host may have disabled the mail() function…”

    I attempted to replace the existing site with a theme template.

    “Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_header() in xxxxx/xxxx/xxxxxxxxxxx/xxxxx/index.php on line 1”

    edit: I looked up the error and fixed it. Move along, people, nothing to see here.

    Thanks, e.
