Installation? I am clueless and beg your assistance, please?  
  
  
  
I have downloaded the Production Version of 1.3.0 to my PC.  
  
I then unzipped it and FTP’ed it to my Web host in the directory https:\abc.commautic (9495 files).  
  
I created a subdomain in my C Pannel: [mautic.abc.com](http://mautic.abc.com)  
  
I downloaded and installed the WPMautic Wordpress plugin and set the Mautic Base URL to: [https://abc.com/mautic/](https://abc.com/mautic/)  
  
  
  
I am not clever enough to trigger the installer and am a little confused. It appears that Mautic has a generic zip file and their are not different flavors for different host/software configurations.  
  
  
  
I talked to DavidH at a local SEO meetup in January where he was speaking and was really impressed with him and Mautic. I would love to give it a go.  
  
  
  
Your insights will be greatly appreciated. CraigM
