Not to be rude, but I think their support department would be better at answering the question if WordPress can be installed and WordPress would probably be a better place to see if you can install without a database.. Or you can also do a web search and see if anyone has already answered those questions.. Good luck

1. Wordpress requires PHP and MySQL, both of which are available for Windows Server.
2. Wordpress includes MySQL among its requirements, used for storing content. Without a database where would content be stored?
One question for you: Can you kindly explain how this relates to LiveCode?
This is a forum for users of LiveCode, and unless this thread is related it will be deleted.
I look forward to your reply.

I have seen a very few web-based forums and CMS that store as flat files, no DB required..

True, but WordPress isn't one of them.
