Creating a New Account
This is how you add a new domain to your account. Please follow this Step-by-Step Guide:
Log into your WebHostManager
Click on 'Create a new Account'
Enter a domain name in the 'Domain' field. Do not enter a 'www' in this field. The Webhost Manager software requires this portion to be left off in order to be set up correctly. Also be sure you have not added a space in any part of the Domain field. If you do, this may cause problems in the functionality of the account. The most common error being a space at the very end. Please recheck the settings before submitting! This will prevent lots of errors and time having to fix it.
Enter username and password in their respective fields. Also note the username field can only fit an eight-character limit. This is to ensure the directories are not too large.
Select the package from the dropdown at the bottom of the form and adjust the limits to your own specifications. Please note that 1024 Megabytes is one Gigabyte. You do not want to go too high by giving the user more than the server can handle. A good average amount would be that amount set when selecting the package.
The CGI Access, Shell Access and Frontpage Extensions boxes may stay checked. Do NOT check the IP box!! The only reason you would need to check that box is if you plan on allowing an account to use an IP address assigned to you from the sales division. Note that you MUST ask sales first for IPs or the account may be removed without notice.
The dropdown with the IP list should also be unchanged. The Webhost Manager software will automatically generate an IP set for name-based accounts.
If you wish, you may change the theme to something other than set by default. The most common theme in use is the 'cpanel' theme.
Check over what you've selected and/or done so far and be sure the IP box is still unchecked. Also recheck the username and be sure it has not been changed automatically by the JavaScript set on that page.
Click 'Create' and let the next page fully load to avoid data corruption. You're done!
