Woltlab Suite Installation 2025 Update

Hello, today we will show you how to install Woltlab forum from scratch. If you complete the steps we have shown, you will have a smooth Woltlab Suite forum installation. After the forum installation, do not forget to install the Turkish language pack we have published.

1- Download our Woltlab files
First of all, let's download the files from the Woltlab website. Then, by accessing the control panel of the company you receive hosting service, let's upload our files to the main directory of our website.

Now that we have downloaded the files, we can now access the control panel of the company you are hosting and upload our files via 'file manager' or 'ftp'. Since we will be using plesk panel in today's article, we will upload our files in 'httpdocs'. However, if you are using cPanel, you need to upload your files to 'public_html' via 'file manager'.

You can delete existing files in the directory where we will upload the files. Deleting them will not be a problem, but remember, only delete files in the specified directory.

After extracting the files, we need to delete all other files except the 'upload' folder and move all files inside the 'upload' folder to the main directory. When we have done this successfully, we should have the following files in the main directory.

If you have made it this far, we can now proceed with the installation.

2- How to install Woltlab?
After uploading the files, let's log in to our website via the browser. When you log in, the installation screen will probably not come up, so let's log in as siteadresiniz.com/test.php and check the compatibility of system requirements.

As you can see, our server seems to be compatible with Woltlab software. Now we can start the installation from the 'START INSTALLATION' button at the bottom.

You can proceed by selecting the English language, as I mentioned at the beginning of the article, you can install the Turkish language file I shared with you after installation.

On the next screen, you will need to approve the contracts, confirm directly and proceed. Afterwards, it will ask you for your database information, you need to create it in the same way through the company you receive hosting service from. If you do not have information on this subject, you can mention it in the comments.

As you can see, let's fill in the information and move forward. When we proceed with this step, you have to wait for a short time, Woltlab is doing the necessary installations in the background. After this step is completed, we will be presented with a screen to create admin information.

And now we have come to the last step of the installation, it asks us for admin information, that is, administrator information. Let's fill in this information and move forward.

Now that the forum installation is complete, the last step is to enter your Woltlab license keys. For this you need to obtain your license codes from Woltlab. Once you have entered your license codes, you can start using the forum.
