How easy is it to Change a WP App to a Cpanel App?

5 replies
Hi, l have created, (or my programmer has) created a WP app, that installs onto a WP Blog, and l was just wondering how easy or hard it would be to modify it so l could also install it on a website with Cpanel???

My competitors offer their versions of my app product, that also installs onto a normal website, so l am looking into it.

    I think you are asking the wrong question.
    I believe that what you want is a stand-alone version of your plugin.
    Now, how hard it would be to convert is unknown, since we know nothing about your plugin.

      Hi, well it's an under construction type wp app, that l do have on my desktop, it also has a background image zipped file as well, that is part of it.

      So, it has code for social media buttons a countdown timer, email, etc nothing fancy.

    Theoretically yes. Look at fantastico, they can do everything via cpanel.

    Realistically, no. I can't imagine deploying some simple plugins secretly via ssh.. My advice is to go with frontend plugins installation. Wouldn't take more than 15 seconds for each plugin.

    Just because it "intalls into a normal website" doesn't mean you need cpanel. For the purpose of portability that's actually a horrible idea.

    All you need to do is have a setup form where they enter their profile id's for the social buttons, their email address for the form to submit to, and a launch date/time for the counter. You don't even need database functionality for that. The generated page could be competely static HTML.
