Installing 5.7 on bluehost

Permalink 1 user found helpful
I have no idea how to install Concrete 5.7 on Bluehost. The FTP (using filezilla) will always upload it to a subfolder. So you never get to use the mainpage of the website? It will always be websitename.com/concrete5install? Bluehost said they could not help in anyway and sent me here. I'm sure its a simple issue and I'm just an idiot, but any help would be greatly appreciated.

Just trying to install concrete 5.7 on the landing page of my website.

Are you aware that there are a number of hosting companies (e.g. Go Daddy) that offer automatic 1-click installation of concrete5?

I am aware of this, sadly blue host only has 5.6 as a one-click install. >_> I'm trying to install 5.7

Basically if you want to use concrete5 as your website root (available athttp://www.mydomain.com/) then you need to unzip the files, and then move them all out of the "install" folder and to your website root. For more details on installing concrete5 you should reference the following guides:

For a pre 5.7 guide specefic to cpanel hosts you can take a look at the following link, 90% of the same steps apply to 5.7+
