How to Install WordPress via Softaculous in SiteWorx

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

  1. Log in to your SiteWorx account.
  2. In the Additional Features section, click on Softaculous.
  3. SiteWorx will redirect you to the Softaculous interface.
  4. On the left side, locate the Blogs category. Click on it, then click on the WordPress link that appears.
  5. Click on Install.
  6. 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).
    • Choose the version you want to install: You can leave this as it is.
  7. Under the Site Settings section, enter the following information:
    • Site Name: Enter the name of your website (e.g., My First Website).
    • Site Description: Enter your site description.
    • Enable Multisite (WPMU): Leave this as it is.
  8. Under the Admin Account section, enter the following information:
    • Admin Username: Your new WordPress username (for security reasons, do not use "administrator" or "admin").
    • Admin Password: Use a strong password.
    • Admin Email: Your email address.

    Note: Copy the admin username and password to Notepad. You will need these to access the admin area of your WordPress blog later.

  9. Choose Language: You can select the language of your WordPress blog. The default language is English.
  10. Select Plugin(s): You can skip this step or select any plugins you wish to install.
  11. Advanced Options: Leave this unless you want to change the database name or take an automated backup. Please note that creating frequent backups may take up a lot of disk space.
  12. Select Theme: You can select any available theme. If you do not want to select a theme, leave it blank, and WordPress will use its default theme.

Finally, scroll down to the end of the page and click on Install.
