Localhost to online host cpanel help

    So, this is my first time trying to move a wordpress site to a new host. I built the WordPress site on localhost and now am not completely certain of the steps forward.

    I believe I have uploaded the SQL tables/database correctly, but which files must I upload through cpanel file uploader to see the results on the domain?

    Could it be that the domain isn’t connected just yet? Or that I’m uploading the whole wordpress folder when I just need aspects? Or is my config file wrong?

    config file: 

    /** The name of the database for WordPress */
define('DB_NAME', 'WP');

/** MySQL database username */
define('DB_USER', '(email visible only to moderators and staff)');

/** MySQL database password */
define('DB_PASSWORD', '^_4=vprL*Sq-');

/** MySQL hostname */
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');

/** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');

/** The Database Collate type. Don't change this if in doubt. */
define('DB_COLLATE', '');
