Installing Hosting Quick-Install Applications

Date Submitted: 2-21-2013

Go Daddy Hosting Connection is an online shared hosting community through which you can install and manage many free value applications.

NOTE: We cannot provide application support after installation. For post-installation support, contact the application vendor through the website provided.

To Install Hosting Value Applications Through Go Daddy Hosting Connection

  1. Log in to your Account Manager.
  2. Click Web Hosting.
  3. Next to the hosting account you want to use, click Launch.
  4. In the Popular Apps panel of the Control Panel in your hosting account, click Show All.
  5. From the Categories menu, click the category you want to view, and then click the application you want to install.
  6. Click Install Now. This button appears only when a compatible hosting plan resides in your account. For a subscription application, click Subscribe Now.
  7. Select the domain name you want to use and click Next.
  8. If the value application requires a database, enter a database description and password, and then click Next.
  9. Enter the value application installation directory. If you leave the directory blank, installation occurs in the root directory. To install the application on a subdomain, enter the folder you specified when you added the subdomain to the hosting account. If configuration information is required, click Next. Otherwise, click Finish.

    NOTE: Windows® hosting accounts can only install applications in the root directory. If you need to see if your hosting account uses Windows, see What type of hosting account do I have?

  10. Enter configuration information, if required. Click Finish.

NOTE: For security purposes, we strongly encourage you to keep any installed Web applications up to date. For more information, see Upgrading to a New Version of a Hosting Quick-Install Application.
