How to Install miniBB Forum via Softaculous in cPanel

Softaculous makes it easy to install web applications. Please follow the steps below to install miniBB Forum.

Log in to your cPanel account.
In the Software section, click on Softaculous Apps Installer.
cPanel will redirect you to the Softaculous interface.
On the left side, locate the Forums category. Click on it, then click on the miniBB link that appears.
Click on Install.
Fill in the necessary fields under the Software Setup section:
- Choose Installation URL: Select the appropriate protocol/domain. In the In Directory field, if you want to install this in a directory (e.g., example.com/directory), enter the directory name. Otherwise, leave it blank to install in your main domain (e.g., example.com).
Under the Admin Account section, enter the following information:
- Admin Username: Your new miniBB username (for security reasons, do not use "administrator" or "admin").
- Admin Password: Use a strong password.
- Admin Email: Your email address. This is helpful for admin account password resets and notifications.
Note: Copy the admin username and password to Notepad. You will need these to access the admin area of your miniBB forum later.
Advanced Options: Leave this section as is unless you want to change the database name or take an automated backup. Please note that creating frequent backups may consume a lot of disk space.
Finally, scroll down to the end of the page and click on Install.
