Fix permissions to enable uploading content (such as banners):

MySQL
Create a database for WordPress to interact with:

Configure WordPress to interact with the database created. Generate goodies for this file with with Wordpress' key generator

Database and database user are "wordpress" and passwords are what you set in the mysql database generation step. (changeme fields)

5 minute installer
Point a web browser to http://localhost/wordpress/

Name the website, and make create default administrator password.

Administration and use
Administer the WordPress installation at http://localhost/wordpress/wp-admin/

The shiny new blog is located at http://localhost/wordpress/

Plugins and themes
Wordpress is a bit of a permissions nightmare. Themes and plugins will ask for ftp access due to permission problems. For now I 666threesixes666 (talk) am getting around it by.

This clearly is breaking the security of the webapp. To restore security once all is set how you want it.
