How to Install MediaWiki

To install the CMS, first, you need to sign up for an AwardSpace hosting plan.

After that, you should log in to the AwardSpace hosting control panel. From there, you can manage all your website, hosting, and domain settings.

To be able to install MediaWiki, you should first register a domain name. Read how:

After you enter the hosting panel, head to Zacky App Installer, located within the Website Manager box:

How to install MediaWiki CMS on AwardSpace

 

Once you click the Zacky App Installer, a new page will open – when you see it, click the green Browse and Install Apps:

Browse the AwardSpace CMS platforms to find and install MediaWiki

 

Then, from the new page that will open, select a domain name that would be associated with the MediaWiki installation:

Select a Domain Name to use with your MediaWiki website

 

Then, click on the MediaWiki icon:

Select MediaWiki CMS to install

 

Now, choose a username, password, and email for your MediaWiki installation. Remember these credentials – you will use these to log in to your newly created MediaWiki website:

Choose credentials for your MediaWiki website

 

Once you fill in these credentials, follow the instructions and install the platform. The process should take no more than 2 minutes.

After the installation is complete, AwardSpace will send an email to the address you selected when choosing credentials.

Read the email thoroughly, as it contains important information about your AwardSpace account and login details about your MediaWiki website. It is advisable to save this email for future reference.

Now you have managed to install MediaWiki successfully.
