How do I upload my Joomla site to cPanel?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 7:48 am

Adding a Joomla site to cPanel is a straightforward process. The first step is to login to your cPanel account and navigate to the “Servers” section.

Under the “Joomla” heading, you will find the “Add Site” button. Click on this button to open the Joomla add site wizard.

First, you will need to identify the hostname or IP address of your Joomla site. You can find this information in the “Joomla Settings” page of your Joomla site.

PRO TIP: When uploading your Joomla site to cPanel, be sure to take the following precautions:

1. Backup your Joomla site before uploading it to cPanel.

2. Create a new database for your Joomla site in cPanel, and assign a user to that database with full privileges.

3. Upload the Joomla files to your public_html directory in cPanel.

4. Run the Joomla installation script by accessing your site in a web browser (e.g., http://example.com/joomla/). Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.

Once you have identified the hostname or IP address, enter it into the “Hostname” or “IP Address” field, respectively.

Next, you will need to provide your cPanel username and password. Click on the “Log In” button to log in to your cPanel account.

Once you have logged in, click on the “Add Site” button to continue.

In the “Add Site” window, you will need to provide your cPanel account name and password. Click on the “Login” button to log in to your cPanel account. Click on.
