There is the [http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress#Famous_5-Minute_Install Famous 5-Minute Install instruction] so these are just my personal notes if I have to install other instances on a similar environment.

WordPress devs have decided on, what I consider as outdated, SVN, however they have been kind to put up a GitHub repo. This makes it easier to pull or merge latest updates even though the [http://codex.wordpress.org/Upgrading_WordPress update] is supposed to be much simpler.

== Update the wp-config.php file ==
We'll use the default as a starting point. Let's first make a copy of the sample config file.
<div class="cli">
<span style="color:#00ff00;">mhan</span><span style="color:#444444;">@</span><span style="color:#00cccc;">brahms</span><span style="color:#999999">:</span><span style="color:blue;">/srv/www/blog</span><span style="color:#cccccc;">
$ <b class="color:white;">cp -p wp-config-sample.php wp-config.php</b>
</span></div>
This doesn't add to the security, but I usually keep original files with an extension of .dist (short for distribution).
<div class="cli">
<span style="color:#00ff00;">mhan</span><span style="color:#444444;">@</span><span style="color:#00cccc;">brahms</span><span style="color:#999999">:</span><span style="color:blue;">/srv/www/blog</span><span style="color:#cccccc;">
$ <b class="color:white;">mv wp-config-sample.php wp-config-sample.php.dist</b>
</span></div>
Make updates to the config file. The lines for salts can be obtained at https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/salt/. The following diff shows you the changes I've made.

== Set up the web services ==
I'm using Apache here, and this is how my config file looks like.
<source lang="apache">
<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName michael.blog.com
        ServerAdmin webmaster@server.com
        ServerSignature off
        DocumentRoot /srv/www/blog
        <Directory /srv/www/blog>
                Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
                AllowOverride All
                Require all granted
                <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
                        RewriteEngine On
                        RewriteBase /
                        RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
                        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
                        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
                        RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
                </IfModule>
        </Directory>
        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>d
</source>
== Correct the permissions ==
Before the set up:
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
$ chown -R www-data:www-data *  # Change ownership to web server
$ find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;  # directory permissions = rwxr-xr-x
$ find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;  # file permissions = rw-r--r--
</syntaxhighlight>
<span class="shell">wp-content</span> folder needs to be writable by the web server after the setup.
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
$ chown -R mhan:mhan *
$ chown -R www-data:www-data wp-content
</syntaxhighlight>
== Complete the installation ==
This is the final step which doesn't involve any CLI commands. Go to the site URL and it should take you through the rest of the installation process. In the example I used above, it would be <nowiki>http://michael.blog.com</nowiki>. Enjoy.
