Our cPanel hosting offers three ways to install WordPress. There are no major functional differences between our app installers; the three options are provided for personal preference. You can also manually install WordPress using their official guide.

​
Installatron

  1. Log in to cPanel.
  2. Navigate to Installatron Applications Installer under the Software category.
  3. Click on the Applications Browser tab.
  4. Scroll down, and select WordPress.
  5. Click Install This Application.
  6. Fill out the form with your desired installation options. Remember to note down the username and password in a secure place.
  7. Finally, click Install at the bottom right of the page.

​
Softaculous

  1. Log in to cPanel.
  2. Click the Softaculous Apps Installer icon under the Software category.
  3. On the WordPress option, click Install.
  4. Complete the form as required; choose the domain to install the site to. In Directory should be left blank unless you want the site to be under a certain folder.
  5. Ensure you set a strong admin password (greater than 60 strength).
  6. Click Install.

​
WordPress Toolkit

  1. Log in to cPanel.
  2. Click on WP Toolkit under Domains.
  3. Click Install under the Installations tab.
  4. In the installation menu that appears, there will be quite a few options. At a minimum, you should adjust the following:
    1. Set the Installation Path to HTTPS and select the domain name you want to install WordPress under.
    2. Set your desired Website Title (this can be always be changed later).
    3. Select a Plugin/Theme Set – we recommend WordPress Essentials.
    4. Set the Version to the latest available version.
    5. Ensure that you note down the WordPress Administrator Username, Password, and Email.
    6. Advanced users may want to modify the database and update settings, but this is not necessary.
  5. Click Install.
