Hello to all. I was hoping that someone could tell me how hard it is to set up a Joomla install on a local PC. I amd running Windows 7. Do I need to install anything outside of the wampserver? Looking at this link: www.wampserver.com/en/index.php would it have all that I need?

I would like to have it setup on my home PC so that I could muck about with templates and not worry about doing it live and on the fly. Am I on the right track?

Cheers,

John

Lots og instructions out there - easy to do
eg forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?t=25954

Seems very straight forward. I will give it a go and update. Thanks for the linl,

John

Something went wrong. It installed fine, it was a breeze. Thanks so much. I thought that there might be some little twists that you might have to do.

Cheers,

John

So pleased for you, John!

Many is the time I've spent days getting these things right.

But I did get Joomla 1.6.0 working with a manual install first time with no mistakes. That feels real good so I share you good feelings!

gotta love that J16
