Mautic hosting

Mautic on HostRight

Mautic provides a flexible place for customer communication and campaigns. This guide will cover the first steps for getting started.

Mautic is a PHP application for marketing automation. Softaculous creates the initial files and database through a guided form, while the application dashboard handles day-to-day configuration.

Access Softaculous and search

Open Extra Features in the Control Panel and select Softaculous Auto Installer.

Use the search field to find the application, open its overview, and select Install.

Install with Softaculous

Open Extra Features > Softaculous Auto Installer, search for the application, open its overview, and select Install.

Choose the HTTPS protocol, domain and optional directory. Enter the application name, administrator account, strong password and administrator email. Review the generated database name, user and table prefix before selecting Install.

Wait for the progress screen to finish, then save the application URL, administrator URL and credentials. Do not close the page while the installer is writing files.

First configuration

Sign in to the administrator dashboard, remove sample content, set the timezone and site URL, configure email delivery, and install only the extensions you need. Confirm that the application can write to its required directories.

Database, files and backups

Softaculous creates the initial database. Use database management for database access and SFTP for encrypted file transfers. Take a backup before updating the application or installing a major extension.

Redis and SSL

Redis is optional for this application. If its documentation and installed version support Redis, enable Redis in the HostRight panel and configure the socket or connection value for cache or sessions. Do not use Redis as the permanent database. See Redis setup after this basic feature overview.

Enable HTTPS before collecting passwords, payments or private data. Complete SSL setup.

Updates and removal

Keep the application and extensions current, review compatibility before updates, and keep a tested backup. Softaculous can provide installation-level actions such as backup, restore or removal when supported. Treat removal as destructive.
