Hello folks,
It must have been discussed but I, Can't find any thread on How to change The /Admin Login URL in cPANLE. I need to change it to something more secured. I would appreciate if someone knows the path in cPanel to change it.
Also, I had activated "No Follow" by Google Crawler etc and need to change it back to "Follow" since the site is almost ready. Can someone guide me on how to get to folder in cPanel.
Thank you.
J Koresh.
Hello,
To change the admin panel path please follow steps below:
1. go to FTP > your website
2. rename the 'admin' folder to any name you need
3. go to ftp > includes > config.inc.php , open it with text editor and change the line 42 from 'admin' to your new admin folder name
Example:
//system admin paths
define( 'ADMIN', 'admin' );
change to
//system admin paths
define( 'ADMIN', 'new name for admin panel folder' );
Hello Rudi,
I have not set up an FTP account yet so how can I use cPanel directly and where do I need to go to change it.
Thank you.
@Javed, you do it using the cPanel "File manager". :)
