You can install SMF through the automatic script installation system - Softaculous. Here is the way of installing SMF from Softaculous:

cPanel --> Softaculous --> Forums --> SMF --> Install

The other way you can install SMF on your account with SiteGround is to install it manually. If you want to perform a manual SMF installation and you do not know how exactly to do it, you can follow our detailed tutorial.


Of course, you can request the script to be installed on your account by our SiteGround Technical Support Team. They would gladly assist you with the installation of any script/application that is compatible with your hosting account.

Log in your Customer's Area and go to Get Support Section --> HelpDesk: --> Get script installed.
