Ensure Softaculous has the most recent version of WordPress<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. You will need to login to your Hosting Administration Panel, then visit your Softaculous Administration Panel. This step will be a little different, depending on the type of Web Hosting Panel you use.<\/li>\n
  2. \"\"<\/a>You need to ensure Softaculous is configured to pre-download WordPress. If yours is already checked, and running the most current version of WordPress, then changes would not be necessary here.\n

    Preparing the Files (bgrid.zip)<\/h2>\n
      \n
    1. \"\"<\/a>You can get the correct paths to both Softaculous and Scripts in the settings page, in your administration panel. For the purpose of this guide, we will be using the default path from cPanel.
      \n 
      \nYou can view the path needed for your current Administration panel, such as Plesk or DirectAdmin in the       Softaculous Documentation<\/a>.\n
      <\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    2. You will need to create a directory for your Custom package via SSH.
      \nmkdir -p \/var\/softaculous\/bgrid\/<\/code><\/li>\n
    3. Copy the entire WordPress package to the newly created BoldGrid package directory.
      \ncp -r \/var\/softaculous\/wp\/* \/var\/softaculous\/bgrid\/ <\/code>\n
      <\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    4. Navigate to the \/var\/softaculous\/bgrid directory and inside you will need to unzip the existing wp.zip file, and add the following plugins and themes in the appropriate directory.
      \nPlugin Files will go in the wp-content\/plugins directory:\n
