"Sibername.com is now delivering client editable web pages instead of a static coming soon page..." How can we offer a pre-installed SohoLaunch (4.7) account, installed for a new client for immediate access, including a generated account UserID and Password to the sohoadmin area?

We have been setting up accounts by logging into the new client's cPanel/Fantastico and thus semi-manually installing Soholaunch before passing on the login info to access the new site's sohoadmin area to the new client.

The best way to do this taht I can think of would be to have soholaunch auto-install as you create the account in web host manager.I am not to familiar with the Fantastico code, but I am pretty sure it is open source... so you would need to execute the soholaunch installations upon account creation. Of course this may be more trouble than its worth, and would have a few drawbacks, such as: A customer may want the installation on a different domain or subdomain, or might be building the site on a tempdomain. Of course I am sure that this would make your life easier, so it may be worth looking into but unfortanatley I can't tell you how to accomplish this due to my lack of experience with cpanel. I think the guys over at fantastico can give you a better answer on this http://netenberg.com/forum/ .
