If you installed an application yourself, you can import it into Softaculous so it can manage updates and backups for it.
Steps
- Log in to cPanel and open Softaculous Apps Installer (in the Software section).
- Open the application (for example WordPress) and click the Import tab.
- Choose From this server, select the domain and folder where it is installed.
- Click Import.
The installation now appears in Softaculous's list of installations. You can also import an installation from another server with From Remote Server.
