How to create Addon FTP Accounts? Print

If the password you wish to change is for an addon FTP account, changing the cPanel password will have no effect on that account's password. Unlike the primary FTP account which is linked to the cPanel login, the password for addon FTP accounts must be updated manually using the steps below:

1. Log into cPanel.
2. In the Files section, click on the FTP Accounts icon.
3. Under FTP Accounts, next to the desired account, click Change Password.
4. Enter your new password twice in the fields provided.
5. Click Change Password.
