First off - apologies if this is in the wrong section.

I'm looking at setting up a service such as Enjin ( http://www.enjin.com/ ) and similar sites.

My questions are using just a standard cPanel / WHM setup would it be possible to do this and keep it automated. The sites would run on the E107 CMS with custom uploaded themes and plugins. I know with cPanel I know it is possible to have the preset files available to new accounts so I could have all the E107 files etc there on account creation but the problem I see is the database already being installed. So is there a way to have E107 fully install automatically on new accounts?

Thanks

There's a cPanel hook called postwwwacct which runs whenever an account is created, you can do what you need to do in there.

And if you don't fancy coding, add something like installatron (which has an API as well) to do all the install of the cms, db etc.

Thanks for the replys guys, I'm guessing Installatron is something thats more of a solution for running on dedicated servers rather than on a reseller?

So until I get to that point I'll look into the postwwwacct scripts, I've already had a quick look and there is plenty about to learn from and piece together.

Thanks
