- Log in to your cPanel account.
- In the Software section, click Softaculous App Installer.
- In Softaculous, find the Portal/CMS category in the left-hand menu and select ocPortal.
- Click Install.
- Software Setup:
- Choose Protocol: Leave the default selection unless you need a different protocol.
- Choose Domain: Select the domain for the installation. If you have only one domain, leave the default selection.
- In Directory: Enter a directory name to install ocPortal in a subdirectory, such as
example.com/directory. Leave this blank to install it at the domain root.
- Site Settings: Enter a name for your website.
- Admin Account: Enter an administrator username, a strong password, and your email address. For security, avoid generic usernames such as
adminoradministrator.Save the username and password securely; you will need them to sign in to the ocPortal administration area.
- Advanced Options: Leave the defaults unchanged unless you want to change the database name or configure automated backups. Backups use disk space.
- Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Install.
