Hi Matt,

You are very welcome. I am glad it came in handy for you. I am sure there are probably some mistakes in there, but it actually came real useful to even me when I had to rebuild my slice

I have some notes down and I plan to add some more details in a follow-up post sometime down the line.

Thanks again!

Thanks Dane. Yes, it took a bit of time to make this list up. I went through a few installations before it became “complete”.

I made the correction to the link that references your post.

Nice step by step list, Joel. Very thorough, and it’s often harder to write out this kind of detail that it is to actually do it.

Quick note. The article you reference in WordPress step nine has moved. The new address is http://danemorgan.com/blog/wordpress/wordpress-security-secure-your-wordpress-wp-config-info

I’ve added a redirect from the old location as well though.

Thanks Jason! I appreciate it.

I have made that correction.

Not sure why your comment had to be moderated; sorry about that.

Great post!! Very helpful!

One suggestion: In step 7 of the Wordpress setup, it should be “RewriteLog /home//public_html//log/rewrite.log” instead of “Rewrite /home//public_html//log/rewrite.log”

Thanks for taking the time to put this together.
