Manual install

Download WordPress from wordpress.org, upload the files via FTP or File Manager to the correct directory, create a MySQL database and user in cPanel, then run the install by visiting your domain in the browser.

After installation

Log in to the WordPress admin, set permalinks (e.g. Post name), and enable SSL if you haven’t already — see How to enable SSL (Let’s Encrypt).

Note: Keep WordPress and plugins updated for security.
