Please follow the below steps to success with Installations
Step 1: Download the installation archive from the WordPress download section by clicking on "Download.zip" or "Download.tar.gz". This way you will get the latest stable release of the WordPress application.
On Server
Step 2: Upload it in the public_html folder of your account. You can do that through an FTP client like FileZilla or via cPanel -> File Manager -> Upload file(s). This way, after the installation is completed, the script will appear once your write something like http://yourdomainname.com in your web browser. Or you can create a subfolder there and upload the file in it. The wordpress installation will be available at: http://yourdomainname.com/subfolder.
Step 3: Once you are in the File Manager, please navigate to the uploaded file and extract it by clicking on the Extract link. It will create a subfolder: wordpress-x.x.x., where instead of x.x.x. is the current version. So you can move the files one level up in the desired directory. The other option is to extract the file in your computer and then to upload the content in the desired folder via FTP.
On Localhost
If you installed XAMPP server for PHP, then go to "htdocs" root folder on your installation directory
If you installed WAMP server for PHP, then go to "www" root folder on your installation directory
Step 2: Extract the downloaded wordpress ZIP file. It will create a subfolder: wordpress-x.x.x., where instead of x.x.x. is the current version. So you can move the files on the appropriate root folder. Or you can create a subfolder on the appropriate root folder and then move on it.
Step 3: The wordpress installation will be available at: http://{hostname}/subfolder. Replace hostname with your local server name ex: localhost,if you are using PORT no according with hostname then you can use http://{hostname:PORT}/subfolder. ex: localhost:80 instead of {hostname:PORT}.
Step 4: Once the files are extracted in the desired folder, you should create a MySQL database for wordpress. You can do that from cPanel -> MySQL Databases or http://{hostname}/phpmyadmin. There you should create a database and add a user to it.
Step 5: Rename wp-config-sample.php to wp-config.php and edit it. Fill in your database connection details in the following lines:
define('DB_NAME', ''); // The name of the database
define('DB_USER', ''); // Your MySQL username
define('DB_PASSWORD', ''); // ...and password
Please note that you must type the full name of the database and the MySQL user. Let's assume that your cPanel / phpmyadmin username is "root" and your domain name is mywordpress.com. If the name of your database is "wpress", the user is "wpuser" and the password for the MySQL user is "123456" you should update the lines in the wp-config.php file to:
define('DB_NAME', 'mywordp_wpress');
define('DB_USER', 'mywordp_wpuser');
define('DB_PASSWORD', '123456');
Step 6: to continue , Open in your browser: www.yourdomainname.com/where_wordpress_is_extracted/wp-admin/install.php.
Step 7: Click on “Create a configuration file” and then click on “Let’s Go”.
