WordPress Tutorial Without Hosting
In this super simple Coding Tip of the Day, I’ll show you how to install WordPress locally on your local computer with MAMP – a free, easy to use application that provides an Apache server and MySql database right out of the box. This tutorial is done on a Mac running OS X, but these same instructions will be almost the same if you are looking to install MAMP on a Windows machine.

How to install WordPress locally with MAMP in less than 5 minutes
Thanks for checking out the video! If you're looking for the next step, check out my other video that covers how to start theming WordPress by creating a child theme – http://youtu.be/ynlcODxPiCc
Hi, everytime I follow these directions I get a database error message. Any ideas?
wow, thanks a lot! I was searching weeks for this!
Thanks for the video bro!
Another good idea would be showing us how to take a local project and put that to run on a server, would you make a video like that?
regards from Brazil!
Thanks
thank you very much !!!! mamp is the best !
Can I give you a virtual hug for this!! It was much needed and so easy and. simple to understand. Thank you so much
you life saver
When i try to install Wordress and write "root" as both password and login it says that it couldnt be installed, because either server not working or login and password wrong. Why could this be a thing?
mamp did not automatically pop up for me. I had to click on the open webstart page button. Not only that, but my url only said "localhost/mamp?. There was no number
thank you! finally got wordpress up and running after a few other tutorials didn't work for whatever reason.
Thanks for the very clear and concise video! You rock.
Thanks You made my day
Perfect tutorial. Thank you!
Can you do a Mamp Pro 6 + WordPress + Namo instructional demo? Thanks.
Oomf I need help after installing MAMP, and clicking Start Server, it does not automatically pop up a new window. Can't access localhost:8888/MAMP
Took me a minute to figure out my url was http://localhost:80/MAMP/ but other than that video was spot on!!!
Finally found someone who explains it in 5 minutes! cristalclear! Thnx!
i cant reach http://localhost:8888/wordpress/
Short, simple and very helpful. 1000 Thanks!
i have a problem when i enter localhost:8888/wordpress a page is opened and it is written on it this site can't be reached i don't know why
Really good!
Thanks, man!
Thanks very helpful
Thank you! I am on Windows 10, not iOS, nevertheless your instructions were spot on and made the installation effortless. Cheers!
Great video straight forward
fyi , I followed this exactly step by step and it did not work at all…
Thanks a lot!
Thank you, your tutorial actually works. (Unlike the countless amount of stuff online that I watched or read)
Hi thanks for the video! Once all of that is done, how to move my website to live ? Thanks!
Hello. So by 4:49 in the video, that is where it goes wrong for me. I have done everything I should, but the next screen I get is "Error establishing a database connection". Yours is the second tutorial I watched which puts me through the same path, but yea. That is my result. Any hints? WordPress db created and all root, root info match.
You do the BEST explanation. You actually make it look fun. Thank you!
You deserve a A
plus!!!!
Thanks Jack, This video helped me a lot.. Thanks is a small word 🙂
