Week 13

Explore the features of cPanel to create subdomains.  Install Wordpress into a subdomain.


Lab Wordpress.

The purpose of this lab is for you to demonstrate your ability to create a subdomain, install Wordpress, and then create a basic website using Wordpress.

1) Create a subdomain off of your main domain of your choosing.  Typical examples would be wordpress.mysite.com, blog.mysite.com, news.mysite.com, forums.mysite.com.

2) Install Wordpress in the subdomain space.  You may either use the installers found in cPanel (easiest), or you may download wordpress from wordpress.org, publish to your space, and configure (hardest).

3) Create a mini site in your subdomain using wordpress.  Have at least 3 pages.

Of course, link to your subdomain from you main domain so I can find it for grading.
