Introduction

If you have installed a script/application on hosting using Softaculous, you will receive emails related to available updates, changes made, backups, etc.
Softaculous offers the possibility to customize these notifications. We can choose to receive only some of them or to turn them off completely.

Requirements

  • We will need the cPanel login credentials, received in the email with the administration details.

Steps

  • After logging in to cPanel, we will go to the Software section and click on Softaculous Apps Installer.
