Herein begins the tireless journey of one individual’s vision to engage the world through wordpress.
umm, ok, not the the whole world, maybe a subset of video enthusiasts – Christian or not – mentioned that because I am a Christian.
I have begun setting up my wordpress blog locally on my MacBook Pro with:
- Leopard
- Apache2
- WordPress 2.7.1
- MySQL 5.1
- php5
Currently I have installed everything and imported my wordpress.com blog.
However I am having issues that I need to resolve:
- The base directory index.php does not function correctly, unless I rename it and direct to it explicitly.
- I cannot view a particular post (I can see the blog page with all the posts). It displays the default “Your WebSite” page instead.
still trying, still learning
Hey there
Found this site quite helpful:
