Creates the WordPress tables in the database using the URL, title, and
default admin user details provided. Performs the famous 5 minute install
in seconds or less.
Note: if you've installed WordPress in a subdirectory, then you'll need
to
wp option update siteurl after
wp core install. For instance, if
WordPress is installed in the
/wp directory and your domain is wp.dev,
then you'll need to run
wp option update siteurl http://wp.dev/wp for
your WordPress install to function properly.
Note: When using custom user tables (e.g.
CUSTOM_USER_TABLE), the admin
email and password are ignored if the user_login already exists. If the
user_login doesn't exist, a new user will be created.
## OPTIONS
