cPanel

To manage multiple domains in a cPanel account, use plugin domains, have a primary domain, add more domains using cPanel’s Additional Domains interface, and add domains outside the public_html directory for easy tracking.

To create a site login, navigate to cPanel’s Directory Privacy interface, enable password protection, and add desired users for access.

Access cPanel’s Directory Privacy interface to adjust your domain’s password protection settings, and specifically for the public_html directory if your primary domain requires a password.

To reset your old password, navigate to the “Password & Security” interface in cPanel’s User menu, or contact your web hosting provider or our technical support to reset it in WHM if you forget your password.

To perform a full backup of your website, use the “Download or Generate Full Site Backup” feature in the cPanel backup interface.
