Wordpress for SME 7.x

Maintainer

Dungog.net (Software)

Description

http://www.wordpress.org

WordPress is a state-of-the-art semantic personal publishing platform with a focus on aesthetics, web standards, and usability.

Installation

Install from the dungog repo, or download wordpress and smeserver-wordpress from any [smedev mirror]

The following command will configure the Dungog repository on SME Server. The dungog repository will no longer be updated. All the contribs from this repository have been moved to the smecontribs repository.

DungogMember contribs are still at http://www.dungog.net After adding it to the database we have to update the changes to the configuration file:

signal-event yum-modify

To install

yum enablerepo=dungog install wordpress smeserver-wordpress

For uninstall

yum remove wordpress smeserver-wordpress

For both you can ignore the yum-comments signal event post-upgrade and signal-event reboot.

Upgrade

After installing the new rpm with yum, go to

http://servername/wordpress/wp-admin/upgrade.php

Setup

To setup wordpress start your browser with the URL http://servername/wordpress and complete the forms.

  • Choose and set the URL wordpress will be accessed with.

Apply any changes to the URL or domain property before setting up wordpress. refer to options below eg.

config setprop wordpress domain blog.yourserver.org

Options

  • You can fine tune access to wordpress with DB settings.

http://wiki.contribs.org/Generic_WebApp_rpm#New_DB_settings

  • Local Settings

The config file is now templated, so changes need to be made in a new fragment, eg

nano /etc/e-smith/templates/opt/wordpress/wp-config.php/05local 

check which setting you want to change with

cat /opt/wordpress/wp-config-sample.php

then add the new setting in the new fragment and expand, it will overrule the old

expand-template /opt/wordpress/wp-config.php

If you think your setting should be the default raise a bug
