What is October CMS?

October CMS is a self-hosted content management system built on the Laravel PHP framework, aimed at developers and agencies. It uses a component-based, plugin-driven architecture with a marketplace of extensions, and a backend that clients can use. Installation requires a license key, and the vendor offers a free first-year license.

How to install October CMS on Hostripples: choose a plan, open Softaculous, October CMS is live

License: License key required (free first-year license offered by the vendor); see official terms · Built with: PHP (Laravel) + MySQL · Official site: octobercms.com

Common uses

  • Custom business website built by an agency
  • Developer-led site needing plugins
  • Client sites with a simple editing backend
  • Small web application on the Laravel stack

October CMS requirements

  • PHP: 3.x: PHP 8.0 or higher; 1.x: PHP 7.2 or higher
  • Database: MySQL 5.7 / MariaDB 10.2, PostgreSQL 9.6 or SQLite 3.8.8 (3.x documentation)
  • PDO, cURL, OpenSSL, Mbstring, ZipArchive, GD and SimpleXML PHP extensions
  • Composer 2 for Composer-based installs (a wizard installer avoids it)
  • October CMS license key for 3.x installation

It runs on PHP with MySQL/MariaDB and the extensions listed above, and a wizard installer exists so Composer is optional. Check that the selected PHP version meets the minimum for the release you install; a license key is needed for the current 3.x line.

October CMS Hosting: Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know

The 3.x documentation lists PHP 8.0 or higher, the PDO, cURL, OpenSSL, Mbstring, ZipArchive, GD and SimpleXML extensions, and MySQL 5.7, MariaDB 10.2, PostgreSQL or SQLite. The 1.x line requires PHP 7.2 or higher.
It runs on a standard PHP and MySQL stack with the listed extensions, and the documentation offers a wizard install that does not need Composer. Make sure the account's selected PHP version meets the minimum for your chosen release.
Use the Softaculous one-click installer in cPanel: select October CMS, choose the domain and admin details, then click Install. It is normally a few clicks with no manual upload. Note the Softaculous package version may trail the newest upstream release.
The official documentation says a license key must be obtained to complete installation of the current release, and the vendor states that a free first-year license is available with an account. Check the official site for the current licensing terms.
Yes. Every Hostripples cPanel NVMe plan includes the full Softaculous library, so on one account you can run October CMS alongside other apps in its category (Portal / CMS), such as Joomla and Open Real Estate, plus hundreds of other applications, subject to your plan's resources. You can add each app on its own domain or subdomain and upgrade to a larger plan at any time.
Check the requirements listed above against the plan resources. Every plan can be upgraded at any time, so you can start small and grow.
