Thanks so much for the precise instructions! They really helped in getting my test sites up on my presonal Mac and not on the WebServer we are using in production, that is on the cloud.

I really appreciate how clear you wrote your directions. Any chance you’ve got another tutorial taking it a step further and installing several concrete5 sites at once using MAMP Pro?

I have installed MAMP and Concrete5… but now, I need to Install a Theme so I can edit it and get it setup for a new website I’m developing… one (ahem) “small” problem (a BIGGIE actually)… I can Concrete to recognize the theme in the folder… it SHOWS me the template is there, but when I click on “Install” it just sits there… any ideas???

“Local” is on your own computer.

I’m a newbie here so when you say “local” can you tell me what this mean, thanks

Yeah, it definitely is. But you only have to do it when your site is local.

I have a running C5 site at the root of a snow leopard, os x serve.

I can’t be reading the preceding correctly, the whole site is going to be read/write to anyone. Doesn’t that pose a security risk?
