How to Install XMB Forum via Softaculous in cPanel

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

Log in to your cPanel account.
In the Software and Services section, click on the Softaculous Icon.
cPanel will redirect you to the Softaculous interface.
On the left side, locate the Forums category. Click on it and then click on the XMB 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).
Enter the following details under the Site Settings field:
- Site Name: Name of your Forum, such as "Technology Forum".
Under the Admin Account field, enter the following information:
- Admin Username: Your new XMB 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 XMB 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.
