How do I use the Auto-Installer?

Depending upon which server you are on, there are two different script installers, with slightly diferent scripts.

On the Elijah server, it's called FANTASTICO and is available to clients with Level 2 or higher. You'll see it in the upper left corner of your control panel... click it, pick a script and follow the instructions in the window. Make note of the info in the window after it installs... this gives you URLs and passwords.

On the Octopus and Kracken servers, go to your control panel and look for the menu called "Scripts and Programs" then click "Add-on Scripts" at the top.

NOTE: There are some slight drawbacks to using auto-installer scripts. Sometimes the script version is not the most current. You should check the website of the script developer to find the most recent update. Some folks claim it is better to manually install a script, configuring each setting for yourself. But if you would not be able to install a script at all by yourself, this is an excellent way to get your website doing great things with a few clicks of your mouse.

ANOTHER NOTE: It's fine to test scripts by installing them. But uninstall them if you are not using them... they will eat up your storage to no purpose.
