Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: can’t reach install.phpI figured it out. For others having a similar problem, the solution was that my db host name was wrong. Thanks for the help ladydelaluna. 🙂
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: can’t reach install.phpI’m not entirely sure about the server, but on the website it says OS and backup: stable linux with apache. So I’m assuming linux.
I did update wp-config with my database info. I’m pretty confident that is not messed up.
And yes, I did install wordpress in the wordpress subfolder.
I did manage to get something to show up now, but it is an error message: Error establishing a database connection
This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can’t contact the database server at localhost. This could mean your host’s database server is down.
* Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
* Are you sure that you have typed the correct hostname?
* Are you sure that the database server is running?I think the database server is running, and that the hostname, username and password are correct. But I do not know anything about databases. What could be wrong?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: can’t click update buttonI have managed to work around it. Clicking outside the text box and hitting the tab key puts the focus on the Update button and from then on you are able to click it, until the window is closed, and then the procedure must be repeated.

In reply to: calendar problemOk I deleted the width lines in sidebar a and sidebar hover. That helped, but it still looks a bit odd.I think I’ll live with it though. Thanks.

Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: calendar problemok, so do you have any idea how to go about fixing it? Or, to use an internal style sheet to override the external one just for the calendar section?
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: wp-config.php file??I can’t even find the themes folder. Exactly where is it located?
Edit. Found the folder on my hard drive, now uploading it.
Now it works, I didn’t realize my page wasn’t supposed to be blank =P. Thanks again moshu. Anything else I’m missing?
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: wp-config.php file??Ok, installation went really well. But now I have a question (I know I ask so many). =)
My blog is currently located at http://mandyanne.dkmhosting.com/wordpress but I would like it to just be located at http://mandyanne.dkmhosting.com
So, can I do this by taking all the files out of the wordpress folder and putting them outside it, or do I have to reinstall? And if so, does my config file remain the same?
Thanks for all your help guys, I couldn’t of done this without you. =)
