Q:

install wordpress from zip

I have become completely frustrated trying to install WP on my server (hosted at home). I am able to launch the WP content manager and when I find the theme I would like to install, it asks me for my server FTP login. I give it the same logins I use for filezilla but it will not work. I have tried every combination.
So I tried installing from ZIP. I go into "upload" and try to upload the .zip I downloaded from the developer but it takes me again to the FTP login. Same problem as before. The theme I want is called "application" by manshi gori.

What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

A:

Here is a way in which you can Disble the FTP Credentials for installing Plugins and Themes from backend
Just Add the following Code in wp-config.php
define('FS_METHOD','direct');
