How to Edit Contact Information and Preferences in cPanel https://chemicloud.com/kb/article/how-to-edit-contact-information-and-preferences-in-cpanel/ https://chemicloud.com/kb/article/how-to-edit-contact-information-and-preferences-in-cpanel/#respond Thu, 24 May 2018 18:06:51 +0000 https://chemicloud.com/kb/?post_type=article&p=1009 This article will review how to edit contact information and preferences in cPanel.

We advise you to regard this section with special attention since the information you provide will be crucial for recovering lost credentials.

How to Edit Contact Information and Preferences in cPanel

1. The first step is to log in to your cPanel account.

2. Next, scroll down the page to the Preferences section and click Contact Information

After selecting Contact Information, take some time to review all of the information and options on this panel.

In the first two fields, enter a primary and secondary Email address. These are used to recover passwords or send notifications about your cPanel account.

To ensure you or your account owners can receive these notifications, it is advised not to use an e-mail addressed to the same domain as the cPanel account is assigned.

The third field is optional, and it requires an access token for Pushbullet. This digital validation code allows Pushbullet to connect your website with a smartphone or smart device and send you “push” notifications. It is very similar to a messaging application and uses a combination of API features and 2 Factor Authentication, which you might find helpful. You can leave this field blank if you’re not ready to implement this right now.

The next section of the contact information and preferences page details the types of Email notifications you can receive. They are straightforward to understand. Most of them are useful and we recommend you additionally check the SSL Certificate expiry. This is a very important part of your domain which you should monitor closely.

After you’ve filled out all the information and decided on the notifications, click Save, lay back and rest easy knowing that your cPanel account is safe and sound.

How to Use cPanel’s User Manager https://chemicloud.com/kb/article/how-to-use-cpanels-user-manager/ https://chemicloud.com/kb/article/how-to-use-cpanels-user-manager/#comments Tue, 15 May 2018 12:55:57 +0000 https://chemicloud.com/kb/?post_type=article&p=1013 In this article, you will learn how to use cPanel’s User Manager in order to manage your new domain’s user base more efficiently.

What is the User Manager?

The User Manager in cPanel is a friendly and easy to use interface which allows you to add, edit and delete user access to your domain. Using this feature you can setup many important features for your users.

In this context, subaccounts refers to additional cPanel User accounts associated with the same domain, not different domain names.

Add Subaccount

Adding a subaccount or user is easy. Simply follow these steps:

1. Log in to your cPanel account

2. Go to the Preferences section and click on the User Manager.

cPanel > Preferences > User Manager

3. In the next window Click on Add User

4. Type in the user’s Full Name, desired Username, and Email Address.

Make sure to select the appropriate domain if you manage more than one. Equally important is to provide a valid Email address, so that the subaccount user can use the Reset Password feature.

5. Set the user’s a new password or use the Password Generator.

Note: choose a strong password, based on the strength meter underneath the password box.

6. Select the desired Services you would like to add to the specified user. You can either choose to offer Email, FTP services. Below is an explanation of each of these options:

cPanel domain owners can assign three types of services for their associated user Subaccounts.

Email

This feature activates the Subaccount’s Email address. You can access this private Email by navigating to https://yourdomain.com/webmail.

The only feature you can modify from this interface is the Email Quota. This can either be Unrestricted or fixed to a certain amount (up to 4096 TB).

FTP

The File Transfer Protocol, or FTP, associated with each subaccount allows users to connect to the server using a client like FileZilla or CyberDuck to upload, edit, and delete files on the webserver. In order for this service to be available for activation, your web host must have the service running on the server.

The two features available are Quota and Home Directory. The quota determines the amount of disk space the subaccount user may use. This can either be set to a fixed amount or unrestricted.

The Home directory is the direct path to the subaccount’s home directory. It is set by default public_html/username.

6. Click on Create or Create and Add Another User and you’re done.

Edit Subaccount

From the main User Manager page, you can edit each added subaccount user. You may notice that the main cPanel account name and logs account are not editable from this interface.

Click on Edit and you will land on to the exact page you visited when you’ve created the subaccount. However, you will no longer be able to change the Username and Domain. All other features are still configurable.

Delete Subaccount

If you want to delete a Subaccount, simply click on Delete from the User Manager page. The link is right next to the Change Password button. You just need to confirm your selection and you’re done.

We’re here if you have any questions or feedback!

How to Change Your cPanel’s Account Password https://chemicloud.com/kb/article/change-cpanel-account-password/ https://chemicloud.com/kb/article/change-cpanel-account-password/#respond Tue, 15 May 2018 12:52:29 +0000 https://chemicloud.com/kb/?post_type=article&p=1003 This short article will quickly take you through changing your cPanel account password.

Remember that this only works if you know your current cPanel account password. If you don’t, please consult to see how to reset your cPanel password.

Tip: If you do not recall changing your cPanel account password, it’s in the Welcome E-Mail you received when you joined ChemiCloud.

How to Change Your cPanel’s Account Password

1. First, Log into cPanel

2. Next, scroll down to the Preferences section and click on Password & Security.

cPanel > Preferences > Password & Security

3. In the next window, enter your old password, type in your new password, and confirm it. If you are highly conscious about your password security and want to use a sophisticated password, using the Password Generator might be a good idea.

Make sure to keep your eye on the password strength meter. Just like creating a password for other websites, it is essential to create a strong password to prevent your account from being compromised.

Strong passwords usually include both lower and upper case letters, numbers, and special characters such as @,#,~,_, (,* .

And that’s it! Now you know how to change your cPanel Account Password!
