Wordpress is a database driven blogging program designed to make it exceedingly
|
|
easy to publish an online blog, sometimes also called a weblog or journal.
|
|
|
|
Once this package is installed, there are a few configuration items which need
|
|
to be performed before the blog is usable. First, you need to establish a
|
|
username and password to connect to your MySQL database as, and make both
|
|
MySQL and Wordpress aware of this. Let's start by creating the database and the
|
|
username / password inside MySQL first:
|
|
|
|
# mysql
|
|
mysql> create database wordpress;
|
|
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
|
|
|
|
mysql> grant all privileges on wordpress.* to wordpress identified by 'wordpress';
|
|
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
|
|
|
|
mysql> flush privileges;
|
|
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
|
|
|
|
mysql> exit
|
|
Bye
|
|
#
|
|
|
|
Under certain curcumstances, you may need to run variations of the "grant"
|
|
command:
|
|
mysql> grant all privileges on wordpress.* to wordpress@localhost identified by 'wordpress';
|
|
OR
|
|
mysql> grant all privileges on wordpress.* to wordpress@'%' identified by 'wordpress';
|
|
|
|
This has created an empty database called 'wordpress', created a user named
|
|
'wordpress' with a password of 'wordpress', and given the 'wordpress' user total
|
|
permission over the 'wordpress' database. Obviously, you'll want to select a
|
|
different password, and you may want to choose different database and user
|
|
names depending on your installation. The specific values you choose are
|
|
not constrained, they simply need to be consistent between the database and the
|
|
config file.
|
|
|
|
Next, you need to edit your /etc/wordpress/wp-config.php file to reflect the
|
|
values you've chosen. These values will go in the appropriate places at the
|
|
beginning of that file.
|
|
|
|
Once that's done and the database server and web server have been started,
|
|
open a web browser to http://localhost/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php and
|
|
follow the instructions given to you on the pages you see to set up the
|
|
database tables and begin publishing your blog.

|
Wordpress ships with Flash and Silverlight plugins for the 'plupload' file
|
|
uploader and the 'mediaelement' media player embedder. The idea is to try and
|
|
be able to provide a multi-file uploader and an embedded video player when
|
|
HTML5 is not available (or does not support the video format in question).
|
|
These plugins are provided as pre-built binaries and there is no mechanism
|
|
for building them from source during Wordpress compilation. As the inclusion
|
|
of pre-built binaries is against Fedora policy - see
|
|
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#No_inclusion_of_pre-built_binaries_or_libraries
|
|
- these plugins have been removed from the Fedora package. As a consequence:
|
|
|
|
a) any Wordpress element or plugin that uses the 'plupload' will only present
|
|
an HTML5-based multi-file uploader if HTML5 is supported by the user's browser
|
|
or an HMTL4-based single-file uploader in HTML5 is not supported. No Flash
|
|
or Silverlight-based multi-file uploader will be provided.
|
|
|
|
b) If you try to embed media into a Wordpress post using the [video] and
|
|
[audio] short tags, the media player will be visible if the reader is using
|
|
a browser that has HTML5 support for the media format in question; if not, the
|
|
'Download Media' link will be offered. No Flash or Silverlight-based player
|
|
element will be included.
