Hello,

I am trying to figure out where in cPanel I can go to add home.php to my list a default pages. Does anyone know? If so please let me know and thank you for your time.

Hi,

Just add the below line in the .htaccess file

DirectoryIndex home.php index.php index.html

Thanks,

Hello blckspder,

There no such option present in cpanel to set default home page for your site. It has to be done using .htaccess file as per kris told you.

OR

You can set redirect in cpanel to your home page for your site.

Thank you.

Re: change the default page in cPanel

There's most likely an index.html file under one of the following locations that contains the default cPanel page:

/root/cpanel3-skel/
/usr/local/apache/htdocs/

Just upload a new index.html to your server and overwrite which ever index.html is present. Technically it should be the /root/cpanel3-skel/ directory, but if no website is configured then the default Apache (htdocs directory) is used which also contains the same cPanel page.


Cheers,
