In this article we’ll explain the process of manually updating your Awstats reports with the most current data by adding “Update Now” button.
By enabling “Update Now” button for Awstats, you can update your stats and get current visual statistics about visitors of your site.
Let see how it can be done.

Step 1. Login to your cpanel

Step 4. Edit the .conf file (e.g. awstats.yourdomain.com.conf)

Step 5. Look for this line: AllowToUpdateStatsFromBrowser, set the value to 1 (AllowToUpdateStatsFromBrowser=1)

Step 6. Save the .conf file. When you refresh your statistics page. you will get ‘update now’ button at the top of the page.

If you need to connect to your mysql database using third party software that does not run on the server, such as a MySQL client on your desktop a remote MySQL connection can be made.
In this article we will show you how to connect your mysql database using third party software on your local PC.
To make this possible, first you will have to allow the connection from within cPanel for the IP address you are connecting from.

Adding an IP address to allow a remote MySQL connection

Step 1. Login to your Cpanel >> click on “Remote MySQL” under the Databases Section.

Step 2. Now, you will need to add the IP address into the field on the page and select “Add Host”. To get your local IP you can visit link : http://whatismyipaddress.com

Now, since you have added the IP address to remote MySQL connections you will be able to connect to the databases. You can add as many IP addresses as you need.

Allow all Ip’s using Wildcard entry

Step 3. If your IP address changes regularly, you can add a wildcard by using the % symbol. This will add all IP addresses in that range.

If you want to list all IP addresses in the range 192.168.92.1 to 192.168.92.255 you’d add the IP address 192.168.92.%

Here we are done with adding IP for remote MySQL connection. 🙂
Now you can proceed with connecting remote MySQL using Navicat, Workbench or Dreamweaver

Email forwarding is a way to send an email that is delivered to one email address to a different email address.
Example: you have created webmaster@yourdomainname.com, info@yourdomainname.com, etc.
In this article we will show you how to setup Email Forwarders in your cPanel. Then, we will show you how to forward all email for a domain.

Creating a forwarder in cPanel

Step 1. To access the forwarders menu, log into your cPanel, and navigate to section Mail > Forwarders: .

Step 2. Click on Add Forwarder.

Step 3. Put the name of the email address you wish to forward from in the first blank field. For example: for user@yourdomainname.com, put user in the first blank field.

You can choose to what address the incoming mail should be forwarded. The other option is to choose a failure message which will be returned to the sender.

Step 4. Click on Add Forwarder to add the forwarder.

Make sure you have spelled both email addresses correctly when adding forwarders.

That’s it. We are done with Email Forwarding. 😉

Now lets start with Forward All Emails For A Domain.

Step 1. Login to your cpanel and click on Forwarders in the Mail section.

Step 2. Click the Add Domain Forwarder button.

Step 3. Select the Domain you want to forward email from, in the drop-down box. Then, enter the domain you want to forward to. “Domain forwarding takes place only when a delivery is not successful. For example, a user sends an email to john@example1.com. If john@example1.com is an existing email address or auto responder, then the email will not be forwarded. The email will be forwarded if john@example1.com is not an existing email address or auto responder.”

You are finished when you see a message similar to: “File updated ‘/etc/vdomainaliases/example.com’ All email sent to example.com will now be copied to domain.com”

So, here we have completed both points. 🙂

Everyone likes his site to be up and running faster. While setting up cache in Drupal can speed things up for your site and enhance the site’s overall performance. Caching is great as it keeps snapshots of data and pages so reload time is much quicker. Lets see how it can be done.
