WordPress is one of the most popular<span class=\"st\"> free content management systems, written in PHP that allows web developers to build websites for any purpose. The MainWP dashboard plugin will allow you to manage your WordPress websites from one central location and get nearly complete control of all your WordPress based websites from the MainWP Dashboard.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>This tutorial was tested and written for an <a title=\"Ubuntu VPS Hosting\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/ubuntu-hosting.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ubuntu 16.04 VPS<\/a>, but it should work on any Linux distribution.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\nThis install guide assumes that Apache, MySQL and PHP are already installed and configured on your virtual servers. At the time of writing this tutorial, the latest stable version of WordPress is 4.6.1 and it requires:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>PHP 5.6 or later with the GD graphics library version 2.0.x+, MySQLi and mbstring PHP extensions enabled;<\/li>\n<li>Apache Web Server &gt;= 2.0 compiled with mod_rewrite module and with the following directives allowed: RewriteEngine, RewriteBase, RewriteCond and RewriteRule.;<\/li>\n<li>MySQL 5.6 or later or MariaDB version 10.0 or later installed on your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">virtual servers<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Let&#8217;s start with the installation. Download the latest version of WordPress available at https:\/\/wordpress.org\/latest.tar.gz to the first server and extract it using the following commands:<\/p>\n<pre>cd \/opt\r\nwget https:\/\/wordpress.org\/latest.zip\r\nmkdir -p \/var\/www\/html\/wordpress\r\nunzip -o latest.zip -d \/var\/www\/html\/<\/pre>\n<p>Create a new MySQL database for WordPress to use and assign a user to it with full permissions:<\/p>\n<pre>mysql -u root -p\r\nmysql&gt; CREATE DATABASE wpdb;\r\nmysql&gt; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON wpdb.* TO 'wpuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'yOur-passw0rd' WITH GRANT OPTION;\r\nmysql&gt; FLUSH PRIVILEGES;\r\nmysql&gt; quit<\/pre>\n<p>Do not forget to replace &#8216;yOur-passw0rd&#8217; with a strong password.<br \/>\nCreate a new virtual host directive in Apache. For example, create a new Apache configuration file named &#8216;wordpress.conf&#8217; on your virtual server:<\/p>\n<pre>touch \/etc\/apache2\/sites-available\/wordpress.conf<\/pre>\n<p>Then, run the following command:<\/p>\n<pre>ln -s \/etc\/apache2\/sites-available\/wordpress.conf \/etc\/apache2\/sites-enabled\/wordpress.conf<\/pre>\n<p>Or, use the a2ensite to enable the &#8216;wordpress.conf&#8217; configuration in Apache:<\/p>\n<pre>sudo a2ensite wordpress.conf<\/pre>\n<p>Edit the &#8216;wordpress.conf&#8217; configuration file:<\/p>\n<pre>vi \/etc\/apache2\/sites-available\/wordpress.conf<\/pre>\n<p>and add the following lines to it:<\/p>\n<pre>&lt;VirtualHost *:80&gt;\r\nServerAdmin admin@yourdomain.com\r\nDocumentRoot \/var\/www\/html\/wordpress\/\r\nServerName your-domain1.com\r\nServerAlias www.your-domain1.com\r\n&lt;Directory \/var\/www\/html\/wordpress\/&gt;\r\nOptions FollowSymLinks\r\nAllowOverride All\r\n&lt;\/Directory&gt;\r\nErrorLog \/var\/log\/apache2\/your-domain1.com-error_log\r\nCustomLog \/var\/log\/apache2\/your-domain1.com-access_log common\r\n&lt;\/VirtualHost&gt;<\/pre>\n<p>Optionally, add\/modify the following lines in php.ini configuration file:<\/p>\n<pre>memory_limit = 256M\r\ndefault_charset = \"UTF-8\"\t\r\n<\/pre>\n<p>Set the proper file permissions for the Apache web server to write to &#8216;\/var\/www\/html\/wordpress\/&#8217; directory:<\/p>\n<pre>sudo chown -R www-data:www-data \/var\/www\/html\/wordpress\/<\/pre>\n<p>Enable the Apache2 rewrite module if it is not already done so:<\/p>\n<pre>sudo a2enmod rewrite<\/pre>\n<p>Restart the Apache web server for the changes to take effect:<\/p>\n<pre>service apache2 restart<\/pre>\n<p>Copy the wp-config-sample.php file to wp-config.php :<\/p>\n<pre>cd \/var\/www\/html\/wordpress\/\r\nwp-config-sample.php wp-config.php<\/pre>\n<p>Edit the wp-config.php file and change:<\/p>\n<pre>define('DB_NAME', 'database_name_here');\r\ndefine('DB_USER', 'username_here');\r\ndefine('DB_PASSWORD', 'password_here');<\/pre>\n<p>to<\/p>\n<pre>define('DB_NAME', 'wpdb');\r\ndefine('DB_USER', 'wpuser');\r\ndefine('DB_PASSWORD', 'yOur-passw0rd');<\/pre>\n<p>Repeat the same installation procedure on the second server where you intend to host the second WordPress website (do not forget to edit the Apache configuration file and replace &#8216;your-domain1.com&#8217; with the actual domain name hosted on the second server).<\/p>\n<p>[ecko_alert color=&#8221;blue&#8221;]Get one of our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/mainwp-hosting.html\">MainWP Hosting Plans<\/a> and we&#8217;ll configure and set up WordPress with MainWP for you, for free![\/ecko_alert]<\/p>\n<p>Open your favorite web browser, navigate to http:\/\/your-domain1.com , then open a second tab and go to http:\/\/your-domain2.com , and follow the easy instructions to finish the WordPress installations on both servers.<\/p>\n<p>Log in to the WordPress administration back-end of the first website, go to Plugins &gt;&gt; Add New &gt;&gt; and search for MainWP plugin, then install and activate the MainWP dashboard plugin.
