First you will need to download Wordpress from their website, https://wordpress.org. You will receive a compressed file (.tar.gz or .zip) that you'll have to extract.
The files that you've extracted will need to be moved to your `www` directory on your shell account. You can do this by copying them there using Filezilla or any other FTP client.
After you've copied those files to your `www` directory, you'll have to go to your account on *your username here*.ulyssis.be. You will then receive a notification telling you your wp-config.php
has to be created. The easiest way to do this is by following the wizard, so you can click on "Create a configuration file".
Go through to the wizard until it prompts you for your database configuration:
mysql.ulyssis.org
or postgresql.ulyssis.org
. It depends on whether you want to use a MySQL or PostgreSQL database.After that you can proceed in the wizard where you can fill in some last few details. By then the wizard will do the rest and, congratulations, you have installed Wordpress.
If you want to have multiple instances of a Wordpress site, you will need to create a new folder in your www-directory on your shell account. Then you'll need a virtual host for this folder, so you'll have to send us an email asking for this.
After your new virtual host has been configured, you will need to do the same steps that you would need to do for a regular Wordpress installation, i.e. the steps in the section above.
You can also use Wordpress' multisite option. You can find more help about it here.
