Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: WordPress isn’t recognizing it was upgradedWell, I solved my problem. I had some files that weren’t actually updated… b/c of the way Yahoo! webhosting originally set up the database for WordPress – my problem was solved after I read this: http://codex.wordpress.org/User:MichaelH/Installation_Notes/Yahoo
So if anyone else has Yahoo! Webhosting, that may help.

In reply to: Complete newbie -hosting questionI use Yahoo! Webhosting and for someone just starting out, I think they’re great.
They have some tools to help you set up your site/pages, so that might suit your needs.
They do make it pretty easy to host WordPress, as they offer it as an add-on, so you just click to add it. Now, it’s the older version of WordPress they set up right now, so you still have to upgrade to 2.5, but I found that worked well myself. You have to modify the database permissions if you set it up as an add-on first, (Instructions for that are here: http://codex.wordpress.org/User:MichaelH/Installation_Notes/Yahoo ) but once you do that, the update works well.
Anyway, I’m happy with their hosting and it’s not very expensive, either. Good Luck!

In reply to: WordPress isn’t recognizing it was upgradedI’m trying to figure this out also… same thing happened to me and I’ve still got the older version to work with and I’m trying to sort out why.
