2. In the Software section, click on Softaculous Apps Installer.
3. You will be sent to the Softaculous interface by cPanel.
4. On the left side, locate the Portal/CMS category. Click on it and then on the Anchor link that appears.
5. Click on Install.
6. Fill in the necessary fields under the Software Setup fields:
- Choose Installation URL: Choose the appropriate protocol/domain. If you want to install this in a directory, enter the directory name in the "In Directory" field, such as, example.com/directory. Otherwise, leave it blank to install in your main domain, i.e., example.com.
7. Under the Site Settings field, enter the following information:
- Site Name: Enter the name of your website, such as Anchor.
- Site Description: Your site description.
8. Under the Admin Account field, enter the following information:

Note: Copy the admin username and password to Notepad. You will need those to access the admin area of your Anchor website later.

Finally, scroll down to the end of the page and click on Install.
