 * OK; thank you.
    Then ‘, overwriting old files’ should be removed to make the 
   explanation simpler and less confusing.

 * > did you enter both addresses in your General Settings as [http://localhost/wordpress](http://localhost/wordpress)
 * No. So, I adjusted the 2nd one and… it worked!

   about WP.

 * Thank you. I did that. But I am still lost.
    In the ‘Edit Page’, I have the sample
   page, containing ‘This is an example page. It’s different from a blog …’. I click‘
   View Page’, and get the content of localHost (ie, htdocs) Index.php, which has
   nothing to do with the sample page. Why? Where is the sample page located? Should
   I move it to the root (htdocs)?

 * It IS WordPress –but not in the root folder. about.php, admin-ajax.php, …index.
   php,…, widgets.php are in the wp-admin directory. As to Parent_Directory, it’s
   an entry made by Apache to help navigate out to the root WP directory.

 * > Do you have WP installed?
 * Yes, of course. And I did read the documentation (like, ‘Where_to_Start’), but
   went around circles. For example,
    [http://codex.wordpress.org/First_Steps_With_WordPress](http://codex.wordpress.org/First_Steps_With_WordPress)
   suggests: ‘Begin by logging into the “administration area” or the back end of
   your website.’ That assumes I already have a website. (Actually, I do; but it
   has nothing to do with the blog I want to write.) Under ‘Manage themes’, I have
   Current Theme Annotum Base. What to do? If I click ‘Customize’, I get You are
   previewing… what? the large window on the right is blank. I have filled Title
   and Tagline; then, what?
