This post is a work in progress.
In fact I have to go back to my recovery point again and try this list over again. -
Why Fedora 25 instead of 26?

Yeah Yeah - the page I ran into yesterday say Fedora 26 was in beta.. clearly I found an old page.
26 is currently install in a new VM.

27 is almost out of beta now.

Yeah, may as well test it on 27 too so you can add something like:
"Tested and working on Fedora 25 - 27".
I don't see why it wouldn't... its' just web stuff which is pretty much universal, and some firewall crap.
Great post though! Helpful

Yeah several tweaks vs the CentOS install @JaredBusch did last spring.

No idea how to use sed to find/replace this
Here's a quick one liner:
for i in {SECURE_AUTH_KEY,LOGGED_IN_KEY,NONCE_KEY,SECURE_AUTH_SALT,LOGGED_IN_SALT,NONCE_SALT,AUTH_KEY,AUTH_SALT}; do sed -i "s/$i/yourkeyhere/g" wp-config.php; doneAh never mind. I didn't realize each line was different.

OK after a few hours of trouble shooting I finally have
-
My issue was that I used a random password generator to create passwords, and those passwords included characters that BASH interpreted as exit characters. i.e. !
Removing those characters solved my issues.
Now both Scott and JB have asked me why I had special characters in my passwords - to which I replied why not?
Scott only mentioned that for his passwords he sticks to alphanumeric.
Jared did express that since these passwords were only usable locally on the computer, very complex passwords aren't needed.
OK fine, they aren't needed but so what? They still should be usable, and of course they are, as long as you pass them through the shell in a manner that the shell knows they are characters and not commands.Of course, for those that know JB, the conversation wasn't nearly that polite

@dashrender LOL

For ease and speed and better management, I highly recommend using WP-CLI for all of your downloading, updating, configuration, etc. One like of WP-CLI will eliminate most of this installation, while making it easier to maintain in the long run.
