Detailed Cpanel Tutorial Part 4: PreInstalled Scripts, Extra, and Cpanel Options



In this tutorial I will, in detail explain all of the features of the current cpanel version of trap17.com hosting going from the top of the screen to the bottom.. I have completley written this up myself.

Preinstalled Scripts
- CGI Center
With this feature, you can install simple CGI Scripts (Common Gateway Interface. CGI allows HTML pages to interact with programming applications) like a countdown script, like rotating banner ads and more!!

- Fantastico
With this feature, you can Install scripts such as CMS (Consent Management Systems), Forums, Galleries, Contact Forums, and much more! If you want a full list, see the end of this post.

- Agora Shopping Cart
With this feature, you can install with the click of your mouse a fully functional shopping cart for your site.

- Interchange Chart
With this feature, you can install with the click of your mouse a fully functional shopping cart for your site.

- Java/CGI Chat Room
With this feature, you can install a Java/CGI (Common Gateway Interface) Chat Room with the click of your mouse!

- PhpMyChat Room
With this feature, you can install a PhpChat Room with the click of your mouse.

- Search Engine Submit
With this feature, you can easily submit your site to some of the best search engines on the web. Although google is on there, google really picks up your site without you submitting it through this feature, it will just take longer.


Language and Theme
- Language
With this cpanel feature, you can change the language of your Cpanel.

- Theme
With this cpanel feature, you can change the Theme of your Cpanel to something besides the default one.


Side Panels
General Account Information

In this menu, it gives you information such as Your domain name, how many sub domains you have used, how many parked domains you have used, how many addon domains you have used, how many MySQL databases you have used, how much disk usage you have used, etc.... the list explains it all really.

General Server Information

This menu shows you which server your website is on, and the path to your directory in which you need to upload all of your files to, then some information about what the server stats are like the MySql Version, PERL Version, Kernel Version and much more.


Well I think that it is about it, there are the few buttons up top that say trap17 which just leads you to the trap17 website, then theres logout, which guess what that does? it logs you out!! there is also the information in the top left corner that shows you where you logged in last.. so if there is a different IP address there than the one you have, someone has been accessing the cpanel that shouldn't be.
