Recommended Posts

My friend wanted to install wordpress on his server (not on Xisto.com) and he has phpmyadmin 2.6.0 and dosnt have the ability to make privliges :).How would he set up wordpress without the ability to set privliges? If you had any suggestions (like step by step directions :)) that would help alot. Thankyou, MTAnonymous

Why have you posted this in the Action Games subforum? Please read the readme or you will get in trouble with the mods.

 

When you say he doesn't have the ability to make privileges, do you mean he can't create users and give them access to certain databases? If so you can still install Wordpress on the one database with the username and password he uses to login to PHPMyAdmin. During the Wordpress installation, give it a table prefix so it doesn't interfere with anything else in the database (something like blog_ or wordress_) and the username and password used to login to PHPMyAdmin.

 

If he can't create databases then just use the one he already has with the table prefixes explained above. You can have loads of different things operating out of one database as long as they all have different table names.

To install wordpress he has to know the MySql Database name, and he has to know one user with a password to use that database. To setup MySql he has to have cPanel on his hosting, and than create Database and add user for it.

Now the best way to install wordpress is to find hosting like Xisto which has cPanel. If he doesn't have similar hosting he needs to see as if he can get Database, and a user for his website. That option depends on the rules of his hosting provider.
