This one is about my own experience when installing wordpress in my own computer. The version of wordpress installer I had tested was WordPress 3.5.1
Pre Installation
1. Download wordpress installer http://wordpress.org/ (newest version recommended).
2. Download xampp from http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html (For non Windows users, you can select xampp suits OS you are using).Immediately Install xampp on your computer / laptop.
3. Extract zip file wordpress installer and place the files in separate folder. (This step is to get you easy when searching the files).
4. Open the folder wordpress and find the wp-config-sample file (this file is in php type).
5. Then, open the file using notepad or wordpad, next edit the file wp-config-sample
Change the database_name_here to your desired name.
(In this example I change them to be yogyakartatourism)
Change the username_here to root
(See the screenshot below )
7. Next step, save the php file you just have edited with new name (save as) wp-config.php
See the screenshoot below.
As you can see now. There is another file in your wordpress folder of which name is wp-config.php above wp-config-sample
8. Go to the folder xampp (don’t run xampp at this point).
Open hotdocs folder.
Create a new folder and name it with your own desired database name (in this example I named the new folder as yogyakartatourism).
9. Copy or move the whole content folders in your wordpress folder to the new folder you have named with your database name.
(In this sample I cut and pasted the above folders to the yogyakartatourism folder in the subfolder of hotdocs)
10. Finished editing and creating folder for your database, now run the xampp program.
