For Linux shared hosting subscriptions, you can install Magento directly from cPanel by following the steps below:
- Log in to cPanel
- Browse the Softaculous App Installer
- Click on Magento
- In the next window choose the version you want to install
- Choose the desired protocol (https// https:/www., http:// http://www/)
- Choose the domain for which you want to install the application and the directory (if you want it to be registered directly in public_html keep the In Directory field blank)
- Set the path to the administration link, eg. /magentoadmin1
- Set an administrator name, a password and confirm the password (we recommend changing the admin user and using a custom name)
- From the Advanced Options menu - you can set auto updates and prefixes to database tables (these are optional)
- Then click on Install
