How to find and install Applications in Plesk


Instead of manually creating files, writing the code, and developing a design for your website, you can install web applications that will accomplish most of these tasks for you. You can use the applications to add features to your site, such as a blog, photo gallery, online store, or you can base your site entirely on a single application, such as WordPress or Joomla.
 
Plesk comes with a built-in application installer that's prefilled with a number of useful applications, and your hosting provider may have added even more. 
 
To search for an application:
  1. Click the "Application" tab.  "Featured Applications" shows the most recommended and popular apps available for your websites.
  2. Select the "Learn More" button to read about an app then you can view more information about an application before you install it.
  3. Go to "All Available Applications". This section shows all the applications, both free and commercial, that are available to be installed. 
  4. Select a category to view specific apps.
  5. To refine the list, choose a sub-category. 
 
To install an application:
 
  1. Click an app's name.
  2. Click the "Install" button.
  3. Read and accept the terms and conditions, and wait for the system to load with your information. (Exactly what settings you'll need to enter varies, but most applications will require you to enter the same basic information.)
  4. Set the location where the app should be installed.
  5. Click the "Show All Settings" link to expand all settings.
  6. Enter the site Administrator's information here.
  7. Type the site name.
  8. Enter the SMTP Host which your app will use to send e-mail. This is 'localhost'. Click "Install".
 
To change an application's settings or uninstall an application:
 
  1. Return to the main "Applications" page.
  2. Go to "Manage Installed Applications".
  3. This screen lists all the applications you have installed. Click an application's name.
  4. You can click the "Administrative Interface" link to view the admin interface. 
If you ever need to change the settings for this app installation, use the "Settings" button. To Uninstall an application, use the "Uninstall" button.
 
That's it! Now you know how to find and install Applications in Plesk.
