Hi ,

Do you want to install wordpress in magento?

Or you need blog for magento website, if yes.. then there is free extension available for blog.

https://marketplace.magento.com/aheadworks-aw-blog.html

I have also used same extension.. working fine for me.

While I'm accepting that as a solution, because it is really helpful, I fear I don't understand the "database" step.

What does it mean "You can use the Magento database for WordPress or a completely separate database."? How do I do that?

[Vimal Kumar]

This means wordpress can use your magento database ( it will create wordpress table in your magento database)

Or you can create different database for wordpress, in this database there will be only wordpress tables.

If you use magento database then you need to enter magento database details ( stored in app/etc/local.xml) while installing Wordpress.

I hope it is clear.
