+    #### Outside contributors
+
+    You do not need to be on the jQuery Infrastructure Team to test jQuery websites. Each site can be deployed after installing wordpress locally, but the database for that site needs to be created first. The database name for each site is listed below:
+
+    | Site | Database Name |
+    |------|---------------|
+    | jquery.com | wordpress_jquery_com |
+    | api.jquery.com | wordpress_api_jquery_com |
+    | blog.jquery.com | wordpress_blog_jquery_com |
+    | learn.jquery.com | wordpress_learn_jquery_com |
+    | releases.jquery.com | wordpress_releases_jquery_com |
+    | jqueryui.com | wordpress_jqueryui_com |
+    | api.jqueryui.com | wordpress_api_jqueryui_com |
+    | blog.jqueryui.com | wordpress_blog_jqueryui_com |
+    | jquerymobile.com | wordpress_jquerymobile_com |
+    | api.jquerymobile.com | wordpress_api_jquerymobile_com |
+    | blog.jquerymobile.com | wordpress_blog_jquerymobile_com |
+    | jquery.org | wordpress_jquery_org |
+    | brand.jquery.org | wordpress_brand_jquery_org |
+    | contribute.jquery.org | wordpress_contribute_jquery_org |
+    | meetings.jquery.org | wordpress_meetings_jquery_org |
+
+    Select the corresponding database name from the table above for the site you wish to test and run the following command to create the database:
+
+    ```sh
+    'CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS wordpress_api_jquery_com;' | docker exec -i jquerydb mysql -u root -proot
+    ```
+
+    Then, finish installing WordPress by visiting the appropriate install URL for that site, such as http://local.api.jquery.com/wp-admin/install.php. Make sure the address begins with `local.`.
+
+    Fill in the form with the following information:
+
+    - Site Title: Any (e.g., "jQuery")
+    - Username: Any
+    - Password: Any
+    - Your Email: Any email address
+    - Search Engine Visibility: Uncheck
+
+    Click Install WordPress.
+
+    You should now be able to run `grunt deploy` from the corresponding jQuery site repo. Make sure the repo has a `config.json` with the following:
+
+    ```json
+    {
+      "url": "http://local.api.jquery.com",
+      "username": "dev",
+      "password": "dev"
+    }
+    ```
+
+    Replace the `url` with the site you are testing. The `dev` user is automatically created by this repo's wp-config.php.
+
+    After a successful deployment, visit http://local.api.jquery.com to see the site, or https://local.api.jquery.com if you created certs.

-    Optionally, import the blog database as well. This uses a slightly different set of commands because our blogs have a shorter naming convention for their database than the doc sites. This stems from a time that the blogs were in fact native to the jquery.com site and database, and remain internally named as such.
