Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Update database encoding errorWhat character encoding are you using? Changing the character encoding of a database is a nightmare. I’d suggest making sure you’re using UTF-8. If you’re not, and your site is in english – you may want to collate the database to UTF-8. IF you do this though, it will not affect any content already in the database. I hope this helps!

In reply to: Moving TO WordPress FROM customized siteIf you try to install WordPress in the same directory as your site, it will overwrite the files. I’d suggest installing WordPress in it’s own directory. Have you thought about re-building the entire site in WordPress and using 301 redirects for your “old” pages?

In reply to: Installed ok but cannot access dashboardFranko1497,
You have the ability to edit the pages and aesthetics from the editor within the dashboard. There’s little I’ve found I can’t do from the dashboard. What are you trying to change?

In reply to: Can't access install.phpIf you want WordPress to function by going to your domain name, then yes you need to upload them to the root directory. However, there’s methods to point WordPress to the domain with it being outside of the /root for the domain. http://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory

Hi dannylee18,
You need to make sure you have assigned all privileges to the database user. However, the error message is right, you can contact your host to find out why WordPress cannot connect to the database.

In reply to: WP installation using Filezilla HELP!!!Typically, 530 errors are related to using the incorrect password. I’d verify that you are using the correct password. If you are and you’re sure, then as govpatel said, it’s time to contact your host.

In reply to: Unable to install paid themeTry manually installing the theme. Look in the ZIP file for a readme.txt or install.txt file. Most themes will have one. If you still run into the error, you’ll need to contact the themes developers.
