Fill in the domain and FTP details and click on Test and Save Domain button. Detailed explanation for the fields : Domain Name: This is the domain name where you would like to install the application. Example: mydomain.com Note: The domain name should not contain http:// or https:// Server Host (Optional): This is an optional field. You can specify the server host if your domain name is not the same as your server host. Example: ftp.mydomain.com Generally, the server host is the same as a domain name so you can leave this blank. Protocol: Choose the protocol that you would like to use. This depends on what protocol is supported with your login details. Default is FTP Port: This is the Port to use while connecting to your domain. The default port for FTP is 21 FTP Username: This is the username that you use to connect to your server. If you are using cPanel enter your cPanel username here. FTP Password: This is the password for the FTP user that you provided above to connect to your server. If you are using cPanel enter your cPanel password here. FTP Path: This is the relative path to the web-accessible directory of your domain i.e. the path after you log in to your domain with the details you provided above. Examples:
  • When you log in with your FTP details if you see public_html or htdocs or www directory then your FTP Path will be /public_html or /htdocs or /www respectively.
  • When you log in with your FTP details if you directly land in the web root of your domain then your FTP Path will be /.
  • If you are using an addon domain or subdomain please provide the path to your addon domain or subdomain respectively.
Backup Path: This is the relative path to the directory where you want Softaculous to create backups. Example : /backups Note: This directory should NOT be web accessible. Data Directory: This is the full path to a directory where you want to create a data directory. Some scripts like Elgg, Moodle, etc use this directory to write some content and store some data. If your user path is /home/soft/ you can choose /home/soft/datadir/ Note: This directory should NOT be web accessible. Once you have added the domain you can start installing WordPress and managing your website using the wpCentral panel.
