  • Greg Baka: The cpanel can be used at various levels. At the basic level it is primarily a file management system. That's all I've ever used it for. ; Modifying my htaccess is about as complicated as I've ever needed to do with it in many years of running two sites.

    Messing with any other aspects can lead to disaster. Using a good hosting service with live tech support is the key to not needing to learn all the complex language found deep in the cpanel. I suggest greengeeks(dot)com for that sort of hosting.
  • Steven Ciccantelli: Yes looks like I can really make a mess of this think I need to hire a webmaster.
    Before I did anything I was going to use the backup wizard.
    All I really need to do is link Facebook and g+ page.Better I start shopping around website doing well just need a tweak or 2
  • Steven Ciccantelli: +Greg Baka I don't think host company will mess with site but thank you I will look around as this I can't afford to mess up.
  • Greg Baka: +Steven Ciccantelli - You wrote "All I really need to do is link Facebook and g+ page." ;

    Link them to what? Why?

    As far as I know, there is nothing you can do in a cpanel that effects FB or G+ pages. Because those pages are part of completely different systems.
  • Steven Ciccantelli: +Greg Baka ;told you I was a moron.is the cpanel where you go to work on on a website?
  • Greg Baka: Hi +Steven Ciccantelli ; - no problem. ;
    Web pages would be built and altered using an "editor program" (not the cpanel).
    Then they are uploaded to webhosting service through the cpanel.
    Once there, you can see the page files, image files, JS files, etc listed in their folders. It's much like using Windows Explorer on your own personal computer to see a list of your own files organized into folders.
  • Steven Ciccantelli: +Greg Baka lol I drive a taxi.Anyhow so cpanel does not help me edit website?
  • Greg Baka: Nope, it's not an editor. ; Primarily it is just a file organizer. There are other very geeky things that can be done with it, but most owners of simple sites never get that deep.

    For what purpose are you building a website?

    The cuetimes listed on this page are functional while the live broadcast continues and also once Youtube has finished processing the public broadcast. Processing time varies between 6-24 hours. During this period the clip is viewable in full but the cuetimes cannot be relied on.
