1) Accessing your control panel: |
Access your control panel by clicking

screen. Type your login ID and password in the boxes and click Log
In. After clicking Log In you will be taken to
the Main Administration screen shown in figure 1 below.

2)Changing your control panel password: |
 |
Under this control system you
have separate passwords for your control panel login and your website
login. By default, when you open your account they are set the
same. We recommend that for ease of use and remembrance you leave
them the same. However, we recognize that for some of you there
may be situations where you want to have different passwords set.
To change your control panel password, after you log in, click on the
Edit button. (see in figure 1 to
the left) |
|
 |
After clicking
the edit button you will be taken to Client Administration screen at the
left (figure 2). You can change your control panel password by
typing the new password in the Plesk password line. (see
in figure 2 to the left) It is also important to make sure that the
email address listed is a current and valid email address. This
email address will be used to send you information regarding your
account (these addresses are for our use only, they are not given out or
sold to anyone). Once you have completed all changes, click the Update
button (see in figure 2 to the
left). When the update is completed you will be returned to the
Main Administration screen as shown in figure 1. |

domain

 |
From your Main Administration
screen, click on the domain hyperlink (see
in figure 1 to the left) to proceed to the Domain Administration
screen. |
