Wish you could do similar for Plesk panel - has some other settings not shown on CPanel and I can't get the install to run in the web browser :(

Hmmm...I followed the steps and have a website and database set up with the Moodle files in the cgi.bin but when I try to go to my site, I get a 403 forbidden error. I am using bluehost shared plan. I put the files as a subdomain of my main site so it shows up as Other CMS on Bluehost's website panel. Any idea how I get the website to show up or do I need to contact bluehost?

Any idea if Moodle is more CPU intensive or memory intensive app?

I think it does not have wordpress connected. But if I click on install wordpress, it says all the files will be deleted. Hmmm...Did I do something backwards?

I installed a theme for moodle on cpanel and it is giving errors. If there a way to reverse/ uninstall theme or do i need to delete everything (including the sub-domain) and re-install moodle entirely?

I am using cPanel of Namecheap, directory shown does not seem to be working for me. Any pointers appreciated. Looks like I have to make DNS entry in Namecheap.

Can you download a whole site? If you can only download your courses it's terrible
