- By creating a database name, a username and password in phpMyAdmin
- And then following the on screen set up instructions to generate your wp-config.php file.
They're easy enough to follow but you should always write down the information or keep them in a safe place.
I've saved all my Wordpress installation details in a database backup program called KeePass so I don't have to remember every password I make but I have access to them all and all I have to type to get to them is one password.
