Hey guys what's up? I'm Matt, and in this video we're going to install WordPress locally offline on your computer. We're going to do this step by step so let's dive in right now.

and you start the wamp manager, just press on yes. All services are running you can't see it entirely... On my screen in here you can go up here and you can also see now that this one is the wamp
then press download WordPress over there. Go to where you've download it, and press on extract all. Now this is very important, then we need to unpack it in C:\wamp\www click on it and press select map, like this....

Thank you mate, this is way easier than xammp that i tried a few years ago.

4:22 Restart DNS - I would just add that you have to right click the icon in your taskbar (right bottom corner), so you won't try to reach it via desktop or start menu, wasting your time like I did.

Otherwise a great tutorial, Thank you!

What's the use of a local WordPress? Where do some of you really learn all this stuff?? Thanks for sharing these geeky stuff 💪

[MinisterGold]

There were a few errors I had to figure out along the way, but the video was helpful. Thanks. Also... were you making a groot reference? It was funny how you said root when creating the website.

[trruthawareness]

wonderful! i could use an answer to 1 question; when i try to upload a plugin from my own folder i get this: " Please select a file. "

Hi Matt, thanks for the excellent easy to understand videos :-) I have a question - when adding a new virtual host, at 4:17 on the video, why do we need that version of PHP, and not a more recent one?

[rubancharles]

Thank you Doc, this saved me a ton of time and is it possible to run two Wordpress instances using this method?

[mikeotoole]

Awesome video, very helpful. How would i go about creating multiple websites locally? would i need separate databases and separate wordpress installs for each?

[akanbinathaniel]

Hi Matt, thanks for this video, I was able to install WordPress but got stuck at trying to add a database, an admin login page popped up while trying to add a database and I couldn't proceed further, please can you be of help? thanks

[seunabbey]

did you have to change the prefix "wp_" to a random code? what if you leave it that way

[phkoon]

Hello again, Matt! I'll start using local hosting for the early development of my next projects and I'm stuck on whether to choose WAMP or LocalWP (formerly Local by Flywheel). Just found out about LocalWP and it seems the way to go due to all the ease and praticality, specially the deployment and bluprinting features.

Would you have a reason to choose WAMP instead of LocalWP, other than the requirement LocalWP has of connecting an account with them?

7:08 so i completed everything in the video successfully and exited the browser.

How do i get back to the wordpress dashboard? 7:08
