  1. Open wp-config.php in your favorite text editor and fill in your database details as you entered them in the first step, when you created your database.
  1. Place the WordPress files in the desired location on the web server:
-  * If you want to integrate WordPress into the root of your domain (e.g. !http://yourdomain.com/), move or upload all contents of the unzipped WordPress directory (but EXCLUDING the "wordpress" directory itself) into the root directory of your web server (/home/members/[your_username]/sites/[yourdomain.org]/web).
+  * If you want to integrate WordPress into the root of your domain (e.g. !http://yourdomain.com/), move or upload all contents of the unzipped WordPress directory (but EXCLUDING the "wordpress" directory itself) into the root directory of your web server (/home/members/[your_username]/sites/[yourdomain.org]/web) and delete the default ''index.html'' file (this will allow the http://yourdomain.com/ to load the wordpress software).
   * If you want to have your !WordPress installation in its own subdirectory on your web site (e.g. !http://example.com/blog/), rename the directory wordpress to the name you'd like the subdirectory to have and move or upload it to your web server. For example if you want the WordPress installation in a subdirectory called "blog", you should rename the directory called "wordpress" to "blog" and upload it to the root directory of your web server (/home/members/[your_username]/site/[yourdomain.org]/web).
  1. Run the WordPress installation script by accessing wp-admin/install.php in your favorite web browser (which should be !FireFox).
