Auto create site with pre-populated db, wordpress, plugins and themes

[Graham Barnes]

Hi I am looking to purchase WHMCS, I used it many years ago and want to try it again for a new project, I have a dedicated server when WHMCS creates the account in WHM I would like it to auto create a database, db user and db password and then import an sql file, also I would like it to upload a version of wordpress I have which has a custom theme I have made (all this in the background so the user doesn't need to enter a name for the database, db user, db pass etc), sadly I am unsure of where to start.

I found this topic from years ago:

thanks

Hello,   To automate the creation of a database, user, and password, as well as the import of an SQL file and installation of WordPress with a custom theme, you can start by exploring WHMCS's built-in automation features or by writing custom scripts using WHMCS's API.

I would recommend integrating WHM with Softaculous plugin, which amongst other features, allows for customized packages for WordPress. You can set this to automatically install your custom WP package on cPanel account creation.

@Graham Barnes How did you end up solving this?

You can automate the provisioning of WordPress installations on cPanel and Plesk thanks to WP Toolkit:  https://docs.whmcs.com/WordPress_Hosting
