After following step(s) below you will have a fully functional Wordpress site <u>with the exception of automatic updating</u>. Automatic Updating requires FTP access to the core files. You can manage FTP access to iBays with the contrib located [[FTP Access to Ibays|HERE]]. <u>Alternatively</u>, auto updates can be left off and: Wordpress system, plugins and themes can all be updated manually by following instructions from [https://www.wordfence.com/learn/how-to-manually-upgrade-wordpress-themes-and-plugins/ HERE]

Instructions were originally written and tested on SME 8.x,('''*''') but should function fine in any future versions of SME Server.
Instructions were originally written and tested on SME 8.x,('''*''') and later updated to work with SME 9.0 (See Note Above). These instructions were Not tested in SME 10.0 (SME 10.0 instructions to follow later)

The instructions are [[:Category:Medium|Medium difficulty]] and assume that you know how to:
* Create an ibay and create a domain using [[SME_Server:Documentation:Administration_Manual:Chapter14|server-manager]]
* Upload files to server using FTP. For ease of use I recommend GUI program, like [https://sourceforge.net/projects/filezilla/ Filezilla] or [http://winscp.net/eng/index.php WinSCP]
*Create an ibay and create a domain using [[SME_Server:Documentation:Administration_Manual:Chapter14|server-manager]]
* That you know how to issue a command to server using [http://www.putty.org/ PuTTY] or similar program. For ease of use I recommend [[Shellinabox|ShellinaBox]]

To mitigate the risk, administrators should make use of Groups to only allow authorized users to have access to ibay files via samba/Windows filesharing.

SME Server and wordpress use the same folder name "files" for totally different folders in different locations. That conflict is causing problems displaying images inside blogs that use Domain mapping. In order for the images to show up correctly, we need to create a custom template to fix the conflict. Go below to <u>PART TWO #2</u> for instruction on how to create the custom template.
