installation

DB configuration settings

Customizing

EXTRA
when you run the install if you get a load of database errors, it may be because your database internet user account need's to have CREATE privilige in order to create the tables within the Wordpress database.

If you log into H-Sphere Control Panel e.g. colmdunphy.com/cp
scroll down to databases,
Click MySQL Databases and click the databases menu. Then click your database you will see all the propoerties for it including the users that have access to it.
Click the hammer icon to edit the properties of the internet user and make sure the CREATE prilige is checked.

Now try running the Install again.
