To walk you through installing your WordPress site with FTP from uploading the files, setting up the database, and the installation page.
Add tags "manual wordpress installation" and "no cpanel necessary". I watched over 4 hours of videos not knowing I needed to install using FTP. Awesome video. Great voice over, no shitty background music, information well explained and to the point. I wish I could up vote it more so it were higher is search results.
Glad you found our guide helpful :)

i am getting error about table prefix. it says table prefix must not be empty.
What if my hosting does not have a CPANEL ?
I've followed your tutorial but when I go to the my website after I upload the files via FTP, the browser returns HTTP ERROR 500. I do not have that lovely installer that you have at 4:18
If your hosting does not have CPANEL then you can normally reach out to them and they can let you know what tools they have available.
Thanks a lot...
You're welcome :)

Hello, after all configuration done, I put my website and doeasn t appear anything from wp admin setup config, what should I do please? It open blank page after acces my webiste and saying nothing. Please help me somehow, thanks!
For a completely white screen you would want to ensure you installed WordPress in the correct folder and otherwise you would want to take a look at our guide below:
www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-fix-the-wordpress-white-screen-of-death
Guys you may use cPanel web disk if available. It's much faster than FTP
Ifs already 2 hours and it is still uploading...am I doing something wrong or it is normal to take this much time...there are 2 k plus files
It would depend on your internet speed but the upload shouldn't normally take that long.
@@wpbeginner yeah ...it is sorted...but it took 3 hours...I had to upload 2500+ files...Thanks for replying..the video is so old I doubted if you would even read my msg😅
Hello, after all configuration done, I go to my website and I see a 404 error. I don't see anything from wp admin setup config. Can you help me? Please.
That likely means you do not have the file in the folder you are checking, you may need to reach out to your hosting provider to ensure the files are in the correct location.
@@wpbeginner Also, I don't see a wp-config.php file in the wordpress files that I uploaded. I only see a wp-config-sample.php. Is it normal or should I edit the file and include my database information? thanks
I don't get it? Add my domain? I don't have a website, that is exactly why I want to use Wordpress... Do I make a domain on Wordpress.com or what?!
To start, you would want to decide what you want from your site and that would determine if you want to have a WordPress.com or a WordPress.org site, we have a comparison here:
www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/self-hosted-wordpress-org-vs-free-wordpress-com-infograph/
For your domain that would be if you have a domain you want to use, WordPress.com has a default domain you can use but some users want a different domain than what is offered. For understanding the difference between a domain and the host you may want to take a look at our guide here:
www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/whats-the-difference-between-domain-name-and-web-hosting-explained/
WHERE I CAN SEE THE HOST NAME
Your hosting provider should be able to offer that information or have it listed in their banckend that would be specific to your site.
Good videos, can i request video tutorials how to update wordpress version in theme for sampel 4.8 to 4.9 but with same theme. I ask because i buy theme but the creator theme not updated wordpress theme jus makes. i try contact him but his never sent me message. Thank's
If you mean the required WordPress version needs to be updated then that is required to be done by the specific theme's author
What to do when I dont have a file public html there?
It would depend on your specific hosting provider, some use a different file structure. If you reach out to your hosting provider's support they can let you know what their equivalent is
@@wpbeginner Ahh, thanks for reply)
I need help to fix it. Thanks
You're welcome :)
