Hi all,
So I have just switched over to a mac for the first time. I was able to install XAMPP fine with no major issues and have both Apache and MySQL running.
I installed WordPress locally and I noticed when going through the install I was prompted that the wp-config file could not be created manually and I would have to do myself...which I did. How can I prevent this from happening again on another local site?
Also I noticed when trying to update a plugin locally I have been promoted with the following message:
To perform the requested action, WordPress needs to access your web server. Please enter your FTP credentials to proceed. If you do not remember your credentials, you should contact your web host.
Do I have some kind of access issue?
Any help would be much appreciated.
