wordpress site "wp-admin" step takes me straight to my dashboard, so I don't have the option to configure. What's up?

That's pretty much my whole question.

If it is taking you directly to your dashboard then it was already configured.

How are you setting the install up?

If you had done something similar and named the DB name, user password etc all the same

Even a fresh install would already be setup.

Sweet, that's what I was hoping. I'm just doing the setup as treehouse instructed (i.e. going to the wordpress.org site and using filezilla, then going to the c-pannel portal to include MySQL or something like that).
