It is fairly easy to install the phpNuke application. Generally, there are 2 ways of installing it - using the Fantastico Auto-Installer tool, available on every Friendlier hosting account, or manual installation  using the tarball provided by phpNuke developers and available for free from their official web site. This tutorial will try to show you both ways of installing the application. We will start with the easier and faster way - Fantastico Auto-Installer.

How to install phpNuke with Fantastico

In order to install phpNuke using the Fantastico Auto-Installer application you will first need to login to your CPanel control panel and enter the Fantastico panel section. To do so, please click on the big blue smiley face icon in the CPanel icon list, which is usually the last icon of all. Once inside the Fantastico Panel, please select 'PHP-Nuke' under the 'Content Management' sub-menu at the left and click on 'New Installation' link as shown here:

This will open a new page with several form fields inside. In order to complete the installation, please fill in the requested information. Mandatory fields are 'Install in Directory', 'Administrator username' and 'Password'. The rest can be left as is and can be easily edited later from the PHP-Nuke administrative control panel.Click on 'Install PHP-Nuke' button and then on 'Finish' to complete the installation. It will take some time Fantastico to install the application for you, depending on your Internet connection speed and server load. If no error messages appeared, you should end with a page similar to the one shown below

This is all! PHP-Nuke is now successfully installed on your account and you are now ready to manage your new Community Portal script!

To do so, please log into your administrative control panel, which is accessible at www.yourdomainname.com/admin.php and in our case here with this phpNuke tutorial is http://s-tutorials.com/admin.php
