Re: What's the best way to install and use WordPress in the old-fashioned Blogging wa

Hi,

Simply install it through fantastico of your control panel, it will walk you through the process.

If you need help, open a support ticket and ask a technician to install it for you! We also recommend you remove or have a technician remove your old wordpress blog if you are not using it.

Re: What's the best way to install and use WordPress in the old-fashioned Blogging wa

Thank you for the advice regarding Fantastico and WP. It didn't work. I'm assuming, there's a conflict with my previous WP data residing there. I'm opening a support ticket.
As to the other part of my question (should I start a new thread?): I read Vasili's wise (like always) "diatribe" about "black cats" and all those scary things beyond my (and every simple, normal blogger's) comprehension, and it seems to say that, no matter how we try it, we're either going to run into the blackhat syndrome or our WP blogs won't reach the public... What's the mess? Is there a simple, blood-free way to do it? (I don't want anything "tricky", only to run my WP blog in an old-fashioned, uncomplicated way. Must I get involved in all those convoluted processes to get a simple WP blog run? ...Vasili??)
