But, depending on your skill level, most can be a lot of technical work to get set up. Let a Softaculous script do the work for you.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-dots\" id=\"what-is-softaculous\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is Softaculous?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Softaculous is a collection of installation scripts that you can access from your cPanel. These scripts will automate the installation several different web site apps and content management systems (WordPress, Joomla, Drupal,&#8230;). They also add several options for updates, backups and site maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And not just website Apps either. There are also apps for blogs, wikis, e-commerce, project management, too many to mention here. You can see what scripts are available by <a href=\"https:\/\/christianwebhost.com\/support\/web-hosting\/cpanel-help-guides\/accessing-your-cpanel\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"288\">logging into your cPanel<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"#top\" data-type=\"internal\" data-id=\"#top\">Back to Top<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-dots\" id=\"why-use-softaculous\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why should I use Softaculous instead of manually installing my apps?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While all of these apps can be installed manually on most servers, a Softaculous script will automate the process. Most apps require that you download the software and upload it to your server, create a database and database user, then run an installer to connect them together. Softaculous will do all of this for you from one simple interface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/christianwebhost.com\/support\/web-hosting\/cpanel-help-guides\/wordpress-install-softaculous\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"325\">Installing a WordPress<\/a> site, for example, is as simple as selecting the WordPress installer from the Softaculous menu and clicking <strong>Install<\/strong>. Once you enter your information, the script will create the database and install the latest WordPress version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even after you get your software installed, Softaculous has tools to help manage and update your apps. While the options available vary by app, you can typically access your admin area directly from the Softaculous interface. Most apps even have back up and update options available through Softaculous. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"#top\" data-type=\"internal\" data-id=\"#top\">Back to Top<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-dots\" id=\"available-scripts\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do I see what scripts are available from Softaculous?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can see the scripts available from Softaculous by logging into your cPanel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you do not know how to access your cPanel, you can find out <a href=\"https:\/\/christianwebhost.com\/support\/2021\/10\/26\/accessing-your-cpanel\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"288\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once logged into your cPanel, scroll down to the <strong>Software <\/strong>section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"990\" height=\"138\" src=\"https:\/\/christianwebhost.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/cp-software.png\" alt=\"The Software section of cPanel.\" class=\"wp-image-131\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You can click on the WordPress Manager if you are looking to create a WordPress site, or click on <strong>Softaculous Apps Installer <\/strong>to see all the scripts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are looking to create a WordPress site, <a href=\"https:\/\/christianwebhost.com\/support\/web-hosting\/cpanel-help-guides\/wordpress-install-softaculous\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"325\">this page<\/a> should help you get started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"990\" height=\"240\" src=\"https:\/\/christianwebhost.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/cp-softaculous.png\" alt=\"The Softaculous Apps Installer overview.\" class=\"wp-image-897\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You will also see the <strong>Softaculous Apps Installer <\/strong>shortcut menu in your cPanel.
