In the newer versions of cPanel, we have a new option – User Manager. With the User Manager tool, you can add/delete subaccounts. As the cPanel user, you will be able to set permissions for subaccounts to access email, FTP, and Web Disk.

The cPanel User Manager interface doesn’t allow you to create new cPanel accounts. This can only be done via the WHM interface. If you have a reseller hosting plan then you have access to WHM. With our reseller hosting plans you can create unlimited cPanel accounts.

To add a subaccount in cPanel:

  1. From the cPanel home page look for the PREFERENCES section, click on User Manager link.
  2. Click the Add User button
  3. Enter the Basic Information for the user as the Full Name, Username, Contact Email Address 
  4. Choose a strong password and confirm it (we recommend to use the cPanel tool to generate one)
  5. Select the Services you want to activate for this Subaccount (EMail, FTP, Web Disk)
  6. Click the Create button

 

To delete a Subaccount in cPanel:

  1. From the cPanel home page look for the PREFERENCES section, click on User Manager link.
  2. Click the Delete button and then confirm the action.
