How Do I Get Started With Joomla?

July 31, 2009 under FAQ

I just downloaded Joomla 1.5 from ( http://www.joomla.com ). I opened up the zipped file, but all I got were a bunch of folders, all sprouting into even MORE folders, with a bunch of php files inside, that my PC doesn’t know how to run.
What is the first step towards sorting all this out and getting started with Joomla?
10 pts. for best answer. Thank you all so much in advance!!

    Hi
    Joomla is an online content management system, you will not be able to run it from your pc unless you have Xampp or some type of server.
    What you need to do is upload every file in the zip file to your server then visit your domain name, ensure you have a Mysql database ready with the host address, username and password and then yu will be able to set it up on your server.
    Depending on what you are trying to acheive, Joomla may or may not be the right choice for you. I am happy to help you if needed as I have setup Joomla over 100 times…
