How to Install Textpattern via Softaculous in SiteWorx

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

  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 Textpattern 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).
  7. Under the Site Settings field, enter the following information:
    • Site Name: Enter the name of your website, such as "My First Website."
    • Site Description: Provide a description of your site.
  8. Under the Admin Account field, enter the following information:
    • Admin Username: Your new Textpattern username (for security reasons, do not use "administrator" or "admin").
    • Admin Password: Use a strong password.
    • Real Name: Leave this as it is or enter your real name.
    • 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 Textpattern blog later.

  9. Advanced Options: Leave this section as is unless you want to change the database name or enable automated backups. Please note that creating frequent backups may consume a lot of disk space.
  10. Finally, scroll down to the end of the page and click on Install.
