Concept Plan
Who should consider buying a Concept Plan*?
Customers who must have home plans drawn locally to meet the specific building code requirements of their jurisdiction, including local engineering or architectural seals, but who do not require plan specific documentation or drawings.
No construction prints are included with a “Concept Plan.”
The “Concept Plan” grants you the right to change this home design to meet your specific needs and the right to construct the home. You or your local architect/drafting service draft the plan to meet your specific needs in relation to building codes in your area.
This is a legal document; please keep it in a safe place. You will need to reference the License Number when inquiring about your design. *Click here for information on Construction License options.
Dimensional CAD Plan Construction License
Who should consider buying a Dimensional CAD Plan Construction License?
Customers who must have the home plans drawn locally to meet the specific building code requirements of their jurisdiction, including local engineering or architectural seals. The Dimensional Plan is a dimensioned starting point for your architect or drafting staff/service.
A Dimensional Plan includes:
Design Basics’ federal copyright and Construction License*
Scale front, side, and rear elevations

Study Sets – PDF
Sometimes you need to price out a home in order to get the sale, but you need the plan to get accurate bids. Our Study Set is one complete set of construction drawings, which is the exact same set we would send you if purchasing the design.
A Study Set is for study purposes only and is stamped, “Illegal to Build From – For Study Purposes Only.” It does not include our Construction License, and you cannot legally build a home from the Study Set. The Study Set purchase price is 100% applicable towards the purchase of the construction print(s) for that design.

<h2>First Things First</h2>
<p>Welcome. WordPress is a very special project to me. Every developer and contributor adds something unique to the mix, and together we create something beautiful that I am proud to be a part of. Thousands of hours have gone into WordPress, and we are dedicated to making it better every day. Thank you for making it part of your world.</p>
<p style="text-align: right">— Matt Mullenweg</p>
<h2>Installation: Famous 5-minute install</h2>
<ol>
<li>Unzip the package in an empty directory and upload everything.</li>
<li>Open <span class="file"><a href="wp-admin/install.php">wp-admin/install.php</a></span> in your browser. It will take you through the process to set up a <code>wp-config.php</code> file with your database connection details.
<ol>
<li>If for some reason this does not work, do not worry. It may not work on all web hosts. Open up <code>wp-config-sample.php</code> with a text editor like WordPad or similar and fill in your database connection details.</li>
<li>Save the file as <code>wp-config.php</code> and upload it.</li>
<li>Open <span class="file"><a href="wp-admin/install.php">wp-admin/install.php</a></span> in your browser.</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>Once the configuration file is set up, the installer will set up the tables needed for your site. If there is an error, double check your <code>wp-config.php</code> file, and try again. If it fails again, please go to the <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/forums/">WordPress support forums</a> with as much data as you can gather.</li>
<li><strong>If you did not enter a password, note the password given to you.</strong> If you did not provide a username, it will be <code>admin</code>.</li>
<li>The installer should then send you to the <a href="wp-login.php">login page</a>. Sign in with the username and password you chose during the installation. If a password was generated for you, you can then click on “Profile” to change the password.</li>
</ol>
<h2>Updating</h2>
<h3>Using the Automatic Updater</h3>
<ol>
<li>Open <span class="file"><a href="wp-admin/update-core.php">wp-admin/update-core.php</a></span> in your browser and follow the instructions.</li>
<li>You wanted more, perhaps? That’s it!</li>
</ol>
<h3>Updating Manually</h3>
<ol>
<li>Before you update anything, make sure you have backup copies of any files you may have modified such as <code>index.php</code>.</li>
<li>Delete your old WordPress files, saving ones you’ve modified.</li>
<li>Upload the new files.</li>
<li>Point your browser to <span class="file"><a href="wp-admin/upgrade.php">/wp-admin/upgrade.php</a>.</span></li>
</ol>
