I bought a website which I'm hosting on GoDaddy.com
I want to know how to import my blog (Wordpress) onto my page?

I believe I tried the wrong thing and now I'm not sure what to do.

Ever tried their website? I don't know what you've tried or not.

Whoops, sorry for putting this in the wrong place, I thought it went with websites (didn't realize there was a wordpress forum!!)I'm having trouble understanding the instructions for importing the blog onto my page. Is there a simple version of the instructions? stubborn.gif

Here you go, the person has a GoDaddy account, as well.

Thanks for the link.

I tried to follow these directions:

Next you have to get your blog onto your web host. You need to upload the files to where you want to install WordPress. Most people put it in one of two places, either in the root directory, so it is the first thing people see when they come to your site

I put the whole wordpress folder onto my main folder for my site but I couldn't pull up the install link. I got this message:

Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL which is required for WordPress.

does your host have mySQL? if so, you need to set up a database, and input the database name, username, and password in wp-config.php

I did... I have GoDaddy.com
I have a database set up...

I'm still having the same problem as above whistling.gif

Can anyone help?
