With cPanel, you can access your website's file manager and database, adjust SSL settings, create backups and assign FTP users. cPanel also comes with WordPress Toolkit, a quick and easy way to install and update plugins and themes and access advanced tools such as logs, debugging, cloning a website, and a lot more.
In this article, we'll review the following cPanel modules:
When you sign in to cPanel, most navigation links and tools are in the center modules, which you can rearrange by dragging and dropping:
The Domains module is where you will find the WordPress Toolkit link (also on the left toolbar), Domains (used for subdomains), and Redirects (formally Forward).
The files module has a number of tools to help you manage your website's files and folders, back up your website, and grant FTP access.
Databases are the primary components of any website in order to function. cPanel uses the MySQL database structure and phpMyAdmin to easily manage database tables.
Your website hosted with Turbify Web Hosting comes with an SSL certificate.
For advanced users, cPanel offers additional PHP extensions and Pearl modules to install. You can also change your PHP version; we recommend setting your PHP version to the most current available.
In the Advanced module, you can manage your website's index of directories and how they appear when no index file type is listed. You can also edit the message visitors see in error pages, such as 404 Not Found, and add MIME-type extensions. This module also includes the LiteSpeed Cache tool where you can scan to enable cache for all of your WordPress sites, including subdomains.
In the Metrics module, you can view basic website visitor analytics using Awstats, for each domain hosted with Turbify, review web server error log messages, and view the most recent pages that visitors accessed, along with their IP, as recorded in the web server log. Need to see your website's bandwidth usage? Visit the Bandwidth tool to get a clear view of the total HTTP (web) and FTP bandwidth listed by year, week and daily usage.
The Turbify Tools module has links that open common tools that are used to manage your web hosting account. If you have domains registered with us, click the Turbify Domains link to quickly manage your DNS. You can also access your email accounts and manage users in the Access Manager. A link for contacting support, help articles, and My Services is also available. Important: The link for Website Builder will take you to the editor. Only account owners should use this link to edit and publish updates. Account administrators assigned to manage your account will not be able to publish updates from this link.
The General Information section at the top-right column in cPanel provides the following information:
The Statistics section tracks how many FTP Accounts, Databases, and Subdomains are used in your Web Hosting account. This section also tracks Bandwidth, CPU, Memory, Disk Usage, and MySQL Disk usage. The statistics will vary depending on the Web Hosting account you purchased.
