How to set up wordpress

Jeff Walters says:

Not that easy to answer this, as I believe the question is not accurate.
ASP is an outdated Microsoft programming language – not a database. The site’s database is either MsAccess or MsSQL – if it is hosted on a IIS server (Microsoft’s rival to Unix) – but it could also be MySQL or one of several others …
You’re now want to migrate to WordPress – which is usually installed on a Unix platform, and it runs off a MySQL database – so – you’ve got some conversions to do.
WordPress is going to provide you with a quick publishing platform, and is fine to use as a business website CMS. However, you are going to be challenged to migrate possibly a home-grown system / database onto the 10 tables that make up WordPress’s database in MySQL.
Not sure if you’re going to be able to write a migration script to manage it automatically – as the tables are interlinked – each Post/Page belongs to a registered user, and each Post is allocated to a hierarchy of categories.
If your current database is not structured in a similar way, you’re either going to have to stuff in proxy values for either users or categories, and fix up the allocations to individual categories manually once the main data is in.
That said, if you can at least pump in the majority of your data into the Posts table (that table holds both the pages and posts data), then the rest might just be easier to enter via WordPress’s admin area.
So – if I was tackling this – I would study the table structure of the Posts table, and then write a SQL script in in your old database to extract your data in the required format for the target Posts table. You can use User ID 1 – as that is the default value for Admin, and Category ID 1 – the default value for any uncategorised posts.
Might take a couple of tests, but definitely doable.
Good luck!
