What is the best way to install and learn wordpress from the ground up? I would like to use this as a learning experience on how to install more so than use a CMS which I have done.
I learn by doing. So install a theme, create some pages, install some plugins. There are thousands of YT videos on virtually anything you want to know about WP.
Look up something like ‘install wp on local computer’. Download wp and set it up during that process. Also, you could create a sub domain on your host if you have one and do a once click install from the cPanel. If no host do first option. By doing the first you will learn some things about wp like that it needs DB details inserted into wp-config.php to install the database etc. The one click install is doing a less manual version of the local set up approach.
Download “Local” from [https://localwp.com/])
