How to Manually Install WPMage

Solution To manually install WPmage:

1. Download and unzip the WPMage/zip, if you haven't already.
2. Create a database for WPMage on your web server, as well as a MySQL user who has all privileges for accessing and modifying it. Make sure you keep a record of the db name and password as you will need it during the install.
3. Place the WPmage files in the desired location on your web server:
* If you want to integrate WPMage into the root of your domain (e.g. http://example.com/), move or upload all contents of the unzipped WPMage directory (but excluding the directory itself) into the root directory of your web server.
* If you want to have your WPMage installation in its own subdirectory on your web site (e.g. http://example.com/blog/), rename the directory (wpMage) to the name you'd like the subdirectory to have and move or upload it to your web server. For example if you want the WPMAge installation in a subdirectory called "blog", you should rename the directory called "wpmage" to "blog" and upload it to the root directory of your web server.

4. Run the WordPress installation script by accessing wp-admin/install.php in your favorite web browser.
* If you installed WPMage in the root directory, you should visit: http://example.com/wp-admin/install.php
* If you installed WPMage in its own subdirectory called blog, for example, you should visit: http://example.com/blog/wp-admin/install.php
