26,287 PointsInstalling WordPress without Affecting Current Site
Hi everyone,
I'm about to do an install of WordPress on a client's live server and they have requested that the existing site not be touched until the WordPress site has all of it's content entered into the site and I have no idea on how I can do this as I usually just do a WordPress install and enter the content in.
Has Zac Gordon done any lessons on how to do this?
Any advice on how I can go about this will be greatly appreciated!
Thanking you in advance,
Stu : )
