As of the date of this post, Fantastico no longer supports WordPress installs on the BlueHost CPanel. So, you’ll need to do all of your WordPress installs using SimpleScripts. Here’s a step-by-step tutorial on installing WordPress blogging software on your own domain or sub-domain using BlueHost’s CPanel and SimpleScripts. It’s really easier than it sounds.
Step 1 – Login to cPanel
Step 2 – Scroll Down to the Simple Scripts Button Under “Software and Services”
Step 3 – From the Simple Scripts Page Find the WordPress Button
Step 4 – Select the “Install Now” Button
Step 5 – Select Where You Would Like WordPress Installed
On this page you’ll need to designate where you want WP installed. From the select box you should be able to see all your domains and sub-domains housed at Bluehost. Just select the one you’ve purchased to use with WordPress.
If you’re adding WordPress to your existing website under a sub-folder, use the box to the right of the select box to designate that you want WordPress located at “/blog”. Then, just hit the “complete” button to finish up.
Step 6 – Write Down or Print Out Your Login Info
That’s all it takes. Easy, right? If you have questions or additional tips, leave them in the comments below.
