Hey, so I was following all these tutorials on installing wordpress and using it in dreamweaver and everything, but all the tutorials taught me to install it in http://localhost/DATABASENAME/blablabla which I now found out is totally wrong! because then I cant get it on my website!  I was reading a bit on the wordpress website about installing it on your website and  Ifound out I'm supposed to install it after I upload it all on my remote server on my site, well thats too late now so how do I uninstall it and redo it properly?

and why didn't any tutorials tell me about this?

thanks

how do I uninstall WordPress?

From the remote view in your Files Panel or via your favorite FTP client (Filezilla), delete WP files and folders.

wp-admin

wp-content

wp-includes

wp-etc.php...

Also log-in to your Server's phpAdmin panel and drop the all the wp-tables that were created when you installed it.
