I just set up one a few days ago and it seemed pretty straight forward to me? -- Posted by michael10 at 3:44 pm on Feb. 15, 2008 Post details on your hosting company and what hosting package you have. Include your SQL version.

Include your SQL version. I can help. I want to start out with a free webhost and a subdomain, so I did some research and chose http://www.freehostia.com/ for the time being till I get the hang of it, and can confidently purchase an actual domain and better host. I'm trying to set up the ftp and the MySQL in freehostia...and it's just acting fucktarded...errors left and right :-( Can you recommend me a free host that...works? -- Posted by michael10 at 3:54 pm on Feb. 15, 2008 Quote: from cl2yp71c at 5:50 pm on Feb. 15, 2008Quote: from michael10 at 3:44 pm on Feb. 15, 2008 Can you recommend me a free host that...works?

That's because you probably set-up a wordpress.com blog, not the one on wordpress.org which you have to host. -- Posted by cl2yp71c at 3:59 pm on Feb. 15, 2008 Quote: from michael10 at 3:54 pm on Feb. 15, 2008 Quote: from cl2yp71c at 5:50 pm on Feb. 15, 2008Quote: from michael10 at 3:44 pm on Feb. 15, 2008  Can you recommend me a free host that...works?    Yes. wordpress.com mehhh...wordpress doesn't have all the features =( guess you can't help, garr -- Posted by cl2yp71c at 10:50 pm on Feb. 15, 2008 Good news....I DID IT!! on a free host too!
