Instructions for setting up WordPress website

  1. Download XAMPP
  2. Download Bitnami WordPress module
  3. Transfer this directory to the themes folder of the xampp wordpress (e.g. "C:\xampp\apps\wordpress\htdocs\wp-content\themes\PROJECT-FOLDER-NAME")
  4. Import WordPress' pages/posts XML file if available through the site's "wp-admin -> tools" (e.g. "http://wordpress.local/wordpress/wp-admin/import.php")

NOTE:

  • You might need to restart XAMPP
  • You do not need to run MySQL in XAMPP

Guidelines for the files:

  • header : Contains the "head" or the opening code snippet of the html/php
  • footer : Contains the "foot" or the closing code snippet of the html/php
  • index : Landing page, but (each page) needs to be verified on the wp-admin
  • methods : (Controller) Handles the post/get methods between the project & the database
  • functions: Defining global variables and adding css/js for each html/php file
  • style : Contains the project description and bootstrap.min.css
  • Creating a new html/php file would be similar to index.php but still needs to be added as a new page in the wp-admin
