  I am apologizing in advance because I am sure you all have seen this question before but I have not had any success in my forum searches.

  I am new to this forum and also to WordPress although I am not new to website creation as I am somewhat familiar with Dreamweaver.

  I am now assisting with our church website that runs on WordPress. Before I make any changes or adds to the live website I would like to install WordPress on my Mac for learning/testing purposes. To that end I an not able to complete the installation.

  I have installed MAMP and started the servers. I have connected to localhost:8888 via Safari and this is where I am stuck. Where do I find my database username and password?

• If you are on a Mac you do not need mamp. Mac has Apache webserver and PHP built in.

  Here is a tutorial on getting you Mac set up for web development: https://mallinson.ca/osx-web-development/

  Then you just drop WordPress in your sites folder and run.

  Use Local by Flywheel as your local dev environment.
  It’s free and super easy to use.

1. But before installing WordPress on your Mac system let me tell you something about Mac system and MAMP software. The Macintosh operating system (Mac) contains a feature of the GUI (Graphical User Interface) which represents a desktop interface with some 3D appearance characteristics and designed to run exclusively on Mac computers.
2. Install the Latest Version of WordPress. First download the latest version of WordPress as a zip file.

Software Appliance – Ready-to-Use #Software Appliance – Ready-to-Use

You may find that using a pre-integrated software appliance is a great way to get up and running with WordPress, especially in combination with virtual machine software (e.g., VMWare, VirtualBox, Xen HVM, KVM).

Another software that can be used is Parallels, which you would have to pay for unlike virtual machine software. It allows you to run both Mac and Windows on your machine.

A software appliance allows users to altogether skip manual installation of WordPress and its dependencies, and instead deploy a self-contained system that requires little to no setup, in just a couple of minutes.

If you don’t have IIS on your computer or don’t want to use it, you could use a WAMP Stack :

• WAMP Server or WAMP Server at SourceForge
• AMPPS WAMPStack – has Softaculous WordPress Installer
• EasyPHP – Has WordPress installer plugin
• BitNami WAMPStack – Has WordPress stack

Wordpress Install

These stacks can be downloaded freely and set up all the bits you need on your computer to run a website. Once you have downloaded and installed WAMP, you can point your browser at localhost and use the link to phpmyadmin to create a database.

Install Wordpress On Mac

Then, in order to install WordPress, download the zip file, and extract it into the web directory for your WAMP installation (this is normally installed as c:wampwww). Finally visit http://localhost/wordpress to start the WordPress install. (Assuming you extracted into c:wampwwwwordpress).

Local Wordpress Mac

Tip: If you want to use anything other than the default permalink structure on your install, make sure you enable the mod_rewrite module in WAMP. This can be enabled by clicking on the WAMP icon in the taskbar, then hover over Apache in the menu, then Apache modules and ensure that the rewrite_module item has a checkmark next to it.
