Great video Court. Will the next video cover installing wp plugins?

Also, when setting up a new hosting acct on HostGator do we have to select a linux server or windows in order to host a wp blog?

You are finally approaching 4000 subscribers Court. Congrats! I am seriously surprised to don’t have much than that by now.

I’m new to blogging and have a self hosted (host gator) wordpress. I have a hard time trying to do anything but post or I mess up something, due to not knowing code speak(php,css,html). Would it be easier if I had a wordpress installed using Fantastico? Newbie on the loose without a clue. Thanks,

Perfect for newbies!

Great video! I’ve written a book for newbies (and non-techies) about installing and customizing WordPress magazine-style themes.

However, I don’t focus as much on installing WordPress itself. So, I’ll be telling people about this video and your other information.

Very useful, thanks!

Court,

When installing wordpress via hostgator, will it install the latest version of wordpress or do you have to specify which version you want to install?

July 19th, 2008 at 10:20 am

It will Jim. HostGator has the latest version which is 2.6

Nice videos, and just in time, as I am about to make decision about the blog for my domain.

For my social networking site, I had to program reviewing and ranking routines that function similar as with WordPress blog. Now I wonder should I go for fresh WordPress installation in which case I am facing with problems of adjusting blog’s entries with the rest of my site (e.g. how should I integrate the existing ranking or search system or tags database with new WordPress’s one?) or it is wise to use my own code for making a blog ? Is it possible to find and use stand alone versions of WordPress plugins and utilize it in my site?

Ok I will stop hear, but please let me know which way to go. At least I am sure there is a lot of fresh webmasters shering the same dilemma (that may find this post and your answer useful).

Furthermore , I am sure this could be good subject for one of your next videos.

Thanks Court,
Darn, I was hoping there would be a easy way to manage this blog.
I’ve been reading that the 2.6 upgrade is causing problems, has anyone else heard of this?

Can you go over how to set up the email features with hosting.
I’m unclear how to set up an email like info@thesitename.com, where do I set this up in hostgator?
Also a big thankyou for doing all these tutorials. I think a lot of times it’s just assumed that if we’re online we know how to do basic website tasks. personally just a few months ago I didn’t even know what FTP was, so my learning curve is getting better with the help of people like you.
Thanks man

Court,

What about setting up the MYSQL databse before you set up WORDPRESS?

Will the mysql databse be setup automatically or do we have to set up the database first?

July 21st, 2008 at 11:14 pm

Court,

Thanks for your helpful vids. Question: Can you please, please, please recommend a resource where I can learn how to set up mysql? Unfortunately I have a cheap webhost which doesn’t provide Fantastico or a cPanel and now I have to do it myself. I just didn’t know this type of stuff before I signed on and I prepaid a year.
Thanks in advance.

Very useful and informative video!

We’re waiting for the next video where you could show us installing plugins and widgets.

Thanks for sharing.

When you have a .wordpress.com domain name it doesn’t let you use adsense. Can you use adsense when you use wordpress to design a site with your own hosting?

When trying to install wordpress all my domains do not come up when I click on the scroll down button, install on domain. Can anyone help me with that.

July 27th, 2009 at 8:05 pm

hey court, I’m a newbie and a member of the keyword crash course. I was following you on the videos and i did everything you said to do, however when I go to my website, the cc Planel login doesn’t show up. Nothing shows up, it’s just blank. What should I do?

December 9th, 2009 at 5:28 am

Alexia, I am experiencing the same thing. It has been almost 24 hours and my page just shows up blank. I set the name servers to host gator, where I purchased hosting. Maybe I just haven’t waited long enough yet? Seems like I read something about it taking 24-48 hours?? Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

Thanks!
