OH my goodness what the hell have I done!! So ive been following these wordpress videos all day. Im hosting my blog with bludomain as I have my main site with them. When I go to my main site it tells me to install wordpress. What I THINK the problem has come from was uploading the wordpress files to the server by filezilla. Maybe I did it to the wrong IP address or something else? Please help wonderful people :(:cuckoo::thinking:
 
You have probably installed the files to the root of your public_html directory, rather than in a /blog subfolder...
 
The only tutorial on installing Wordpress is the one that comes with Wordpress. Frankly.

As long as you've got ftp access to your site and can create the mysql db and know the address of its server (normally localhost) the 5 min install works a treat :thumbs:

I know the FTP, i have the login and password, but what confuse me is WTF is "create the mysql db"
 
For future reference you should find out if your hosting comes with a control panel like phpMyAdmin.

Speak to your hosting company and see if they have a tutorial/guidelines on how to set one up as the exact process varies between hosts.
