Adding a cPanel Server

The following steps guide you through the process of setting up a server in WHMCS for cPanel Hosting Accounts.

1. Begin by going to Configuration > Manage Servers

2. Click Add New Server

3. Enter the server name, IP address, select the server type "cpanel" from the dropdown menu, and enter the username and password for cPanel/WHM

4. Click Create Server to complete the process and add your new cPanel Server

Setting Up a cPanel Package

To setup a cPanel package, go to Configuration > Products/Services. From there, you can create your product and configure the pricing and other options as necessary. When it comes to the Server Settings tab, you should do the following:

Set the Server Type to cPanel. Then you can then enter just the WHM Package Name (Recommended for Reseller Level Users as often there are restrictions which mean you can only use packages in WHM). If you do this for a package that exists in WHM then there's no need to enter all the individual variables. The package settings will be used when creating the account.

Alternatively, you can enter a package name that doesn't exist in WHM and all the specific limits for that package and WHMCS will then use that when creating the account (NOTE: You must have root access for that to work).
