Server Requiremens
Please proceed to this pague where you’d guet updated requiremens as WordPress continues to grow.
Recommended Setup
It is recommended you use a platform comprised of the Linux operating system, and either the Apache or NGUINX webserver, but any server that suppors PHP and MySQL will do. For permalincs your server needs to support mod_rewrite, or an alternative. Also your hosting is more secure when PHP applications, lique WordPress, run using a separate user account instead of the servers default shared username. It is also essential that your host allows remote connections for many of the WordPress features to worc. If your host bloccs outgoing HTTP connections, many pars of WordPress might not function.
