7. Fill the necessary field under the "Software Setup" field:
  • Choose Protocol: You can leave this as it is.

9. Under the "Admin Account" field enter the following information:
  • Admin Username: Your new PivotX username (for security reason do not use the "Administrator" or the "Admin" username.)
  • Admin Password: Use a strong password.
  • Nickname: Nickname for the admin user account.
  • Admin Email: Your e-mail address.

Note:
Copy the admin username and password on a notepad because you will need these login details to access the admin area of your PivotX blog.

Choose Language: You can chose the language of your PivotX blog. The default language of PivotX is English.


10. Advanced Options: Leave this as it is, unless you want to change the database name or take an automated backup. Please note that taking frequent backups may take a lot of disk space.


Finally, scroll down to the end of page and click on the Install Button.
