Step 8: You will see the screen below in which you can adjust the unpacking location. Click ‘Extract File(s)‘ to start the unpacking process.
Customizing the directory is an alternative method to install Drupal on your subdomain or add-on domain compared to step 3. You do this by referring to the directory of your subdomain or add-on domain here.

Step 9: Drupal will put its files in the ‘drupal-4.8.5’ folder in the .zip file you downloaded. As a result, a new folder is created in your public_html folder called “drupal-4.8.5“. Click ‘drupal-4.8.5’ to open the folder.

Step 10: Click ‘Select All’ > ‘Move’.

Step 11: You will see a ‘Move’ screen as below. Edit the location under ‘Enter the path that you want to move this file to:‘ to ‘/public_html/’ and click ‘Move File (s)‘.

All files are now in the right place. Remove the Drupal-4.8.5 folder and the .zip file by checking them and clicking ‘Delete’.

Step 12: Open yourdomain.com in a browser (replace yourdomain.com by your actual domain name). You will then see the Drupal setup menu. Select your preferred language and click ‘Save and continue’.

Step 13: You can then choose a ‘Standard’ or ‘Minimal’ installation. Choose ‘Standard’ and click ‘Save and continue’.  
Step 14: Drupal checks whether your VPS meets the requirements for the installation. You will see a warning about OPcache. Click ‘continue anyway’ at the bottom. You are free to enable OPcache after the installation, but the configuration of this is outside the scope of this article.
Step 15: Enter your database as shown in the example below and click ‘Save and continue.   

Step 16: Drupal automatically installs your website and automatically follows the ‘Set up translations’ step. 

Step 17: Drupal then asks you for the information below. Fill in the fields, write down your username and password in case you lose them, and click ‘Save and continue’.   
Step 18: Drupal updates the translation. After completing this process, you automatically go to your Drupal site and you can start setting up your site!
