How to install plugin in wordpress after following error?

I am trying to install the wordpress plugin in my localhost wordpress. I am getting the following error whenever I try to install a new plugin.
Installation failed: Could not create directory.
You can try to delete the folder of the plugin and try to reinstall it again.
Or try this: Wordpress plugin install: Could not create directory
If you don't manage to setup the permission ask the hosting support to do that for you.

How to remove old localhost that goes to wordpress?

I installed wordpress locally on my system but uninstalled it recently. Now I have xampp and my apache, mysql all running but when I type localhost in URL it's still the same old localhost:
"Awesome! WordPress is now installed.
Access WordPress"
How do I change it so Xampp is my localhost?
Try to restart your system and clear your browser cache and also remove your WP database if you want a fresh WP installation
1) go to the xampp directory and you'll find a folder named htdocs there. remove all files from that folder.
2) force restart the browser by pressing ctrl + f5

How to fix wordpress permissions which is installed inside a bitnami magento container?

I have AWS lightsail, I installed Magento 2 using bitnami. i want to install WordPress too since the client would like to have a blog as well.
I installed WordPress (not bitnami image) but located in magento bitnami installation directory. Such that the url would be example.com/blog
There's a permission problem, whatever I could can't fix it, for example can't install plugins,
Installation failed: Could not create directory.
I tried chmod 755 -R wp-content/ and the plugins/ directory and I tried adding wordpress to apache group, and so many things. Nothing fixes it, I feel it's because it's located inside betnami's folder.
You know why is this happening?
Credit goes to bitnami forum, especially Jota, thank you!. I fixed the issue by using bitnami wordpress module alongside magento. Login to the server then do
wget https://bitnami.com/redirect/to/548719/bitnami-wordpress-5.2.1-0-module-linux-x64-installer.run
chmod 755 bitnami-wordpress-5.2.1-0-module-linux-x64-installer.run
sudo ./bitnami-wordpress-5.2.1-0-module-linux-x64-installer.run
The installer should ask you to specify bitnami installation folder: /opt/bitnami
the default username for mysql on bitnami is root and you can get the password by doing cat bitnami_credentials
That password is the default password for mysql and your wordpress account, that's why you should immediately change it. The wordpress installation would be located at example.com/wordpress, which is exactly what I need, not damaging magento installation, it will be fully working.

Index.php automatically downloaded while installing opencart for the first time

I have a problem with Opencart installation.
I configured it with NGINX and after I finished the tutorial installation, I was unable to open it on my localhost. When I tried to open it, I downloaded the index.php file automatically.
I hope anyone have a solution for this.
Thanks.
It's not about Opencart installation, it's about executing php file on nginx, you should install php5-fpm and have correct configurations. More info at http://apmblog.compuware.com/2014/10/30/proper-configuration-running-php-nginx/

Installing Wp-Plugin without FTP Access

I have wordpress site on my server which only uses sftp.
I want to install and upgrade plugins, but it appears that you are required to enter your ftp login to install the plugins. Is there a way to install and upgrade plugins by manually uploading the files instead of having wordpress handle the entire process?
Add
define('FS_METHOD', 'direct');
to your wp-config.php
And it will be fine
You can install a plugin by simply uploading to the plugins directory and unpacking it. '/wp-content/plugins'. Note that you will still have to enable the plugin normally in Wordpress admin.
