WordPress\* Server
|
||
##################
|
||
|
||
This tutorial shows you how to install the WordPress\* components on your |CL|
|
||
:abbr:`LAMP (Linux, Apache\*, MySQL\*, PHP)` server. At the end of
|
||
:ref:`lamp-server-install`, you created a WordPress-ready database using
|
||
phpMyAdmin\* and MariaDB\*. Now that the LAMP server is up and running, you
|
||
can add the WordPress components needed to host a WordPress website on your system.
|
||
|
||
Before you begin
|
||
****************
|
||
|
||
This tutorial assumes that you have successfully completed
|
||
:ref:`bare-metal-install-desktop` and you have :ref:`lamp-server-install`.
|
||
|
||
Create a WordPress server
|
||
*************************
|
||
|
||
WordPress can be installed in a variety of ways. These instructions are
|
||
written for users who have followed our instructions for installing phpMyAdmin
|
||
when they :ref:`set up a LAMP web server <lamp-server-install>`. Note that
|
||
all steps in this tutorial have been tested using a NUC6i5SYH Intel® NUC.
|
||
Visit the `NUC6i5SYH product page`_ for detailed information.
|
||
|
||
Numerous online articles are available to help you name your website and
|
||
acquire the necessary certificates. Those tasks are beyond the scope of this tutorial.
|
||
|
||
You can take several actions to harden your website from attacks. The security
|
||
of your website and the data it contains are complex and ever-evolving tasks.
|
||
Prioritize security if you plan to expose your website to the outside world.
|
||
This tutorial does not address security measures that you can take to harden
|
||
your site but we strongly encourage you to take action.
|
||
|
||
.. note::
|
||
|
||
Throughout this tutorial, we reference your website name as <your_website>.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Download WordPress and manage directories
|
||
=========================================
|
||
|
||
For this tutorial, you will create a WordPress blog that can be accessed at:
|
||
\http://<your_website>/blog.
|
||
|
||
To accomplish this setup, you must add WordPress components to the :file:`/var/www/html/blog`
|
||
directory.
|
||
|
||
Follow these steps:
|
||
|
||
|
||
#. Navigate to the top level of the website’s root directory:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: bash
|
||
|
||
cd /var/www/html
|
||
|
||
#. Download the latest version of WordPress:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: bash
|
||
|
||
sudo curl -O https://wordpress.org/latest.tar.gz
|
||
|
||
#. Extract all files and directories from the downloaded file:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: bash
|
||
|
||
sudo tar –xzvf latest.tar.gz
|
||
|
||
#. Rename the top-level WordPress directory to “blog”:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: bash
|
||
|
||
sudo mv wordpress blog
|
||
|
||
#. Remove the downloaded tar file:
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: bash
|
||
|
||
sudo rm latest.tar.gz
|
||
|
||
Set up WordPress with web-based GUI
|
||
===================================
|
||
|
||
Recall that you created a database and user when you installed phpMyAdmin when you
|
||
set up a |CL| based :ref:`web server <lamp-server-install>`. Next, you must
|
||
connect WordPress to the database and install WordPress.
|
||
|
||
To continue with the setup, go to: \http://<your_website>/blog/wp-admin/install.php.
|
||
The WordPress language option screen appears, as shown in figure 1.
|
||
|
||
#. Select :guilabel:`English` and click :guilabel:`Continue`.

|
||

||
Once the installation is complete, you can name your blog and create a WordPress username
|
||
and password. See figure 5.
