Wordpress install?

[Kingdom]

Please forgive my newbie ignorance. But I dont see how I establish a
database. I tried to do the homework, but I can't find any help in
particular online; it feels as though it should be so obvious, that no
instruction is necessary.

I get the feeling that wordpress should be quite easy to use in ZPG,
but I'm not sure what to do to get it going. I've put the WP in "c:
\wordpress".

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

If you mean MySQL, you need to download and install it on your computer
separately. See mysql.com website.

You can put it to any directory you want, but put correct configuration
settings accordingly.

Unfortunately I have not tested wordpress, so can not recommend anything
else.

Ah-haa. I was confused that there were database functionality pre-
built in. Somewhere I got that impression. Does ZPG have SQlite
already in place, ready to go?


Thanks for the responsive help!

Yes, SQLite is prebuilt and ready to go. MySQL is not.
