Website General Settings

Please update your current website settings, displayed on the screen. Click the Update button to save changes or hit Cancel to skip them.

Note that you do not need to explicitly restart your Web Server after changes to the settings were made - they are effective immediately.

Field Name | Description
Website | The website domain.
Administrative user | The site administrative user name (login), normally, webadmin.
Admin E-mail | Administrator e-mail is typically displayed on Web Server error messages and is used to report potential problems or bugs. Please make sure it is set correctly.

IP Address

The IP address currently assigned to a website. You can select the other IP address from the pool assigned to the Virtuozzo Container (if there are any not assigned IP addresses available).
Note: In the situation when the IP address a website is based on has been detached from the Virtuozzo Container, the website IP address is not reassigned automatically and you have to manually reassign the IP address and select a new one from the IP asset allocated to the Virtuozzo Container. If there are no IP addresses available, go to the Upgrade Center and buy more IP addresses.

New IP Address | The IP address currently assigned to a website. You can select the other IP address from the pool assigned to the Virtuozzo Container (if there are any not assigned IP addresses available). Note: After you reassign the IP address, please check the website applications and scripts configuration and adjust it in accordance with a new IP address assigned.
Share IP address with other websites. | Here you can change the website type from name-based (many different websites of this type can share the same IP address) into the IP based (each website of this type needs a separate IP address assigned) and conversely. Check this box to make the website name-based or clear it to make the website IP based.
Administrative User | You can reassign the Administrative User to manage your website using FTP. You can choose an Existing User (normally, webadmin) and select a user name from the User drop-down menu, or add a New User, typing a user name (login) and password.

Options

Additional website settings (enabled - green tick, disabled - red cross):

- If you want to make your website available over World Wide Web you can check the Make your website public box. Otherwise, clear this box.
- Prevent hot-linking. Hot-linking ("bandwidth stealing") by some site owner, refers to linking directly to non-html objects at one-owns website. The victim's server in this case is robbed of bandwidth (and in turn money) as the violator enjoys showing content without having to pay for its deliverance. The most common practice of hot linking pertains to another site's images. So, check this box to disallow hot-linking to your website content.
- Allow Indexes. Check this box to allow the use of the directives controlling directory indexing for the website.
- Allow Includes. Check this box to allow the use of server side includes (SSI) for the website.
- Allow non-executable includes. Check this box to allow the use of non-executable server side includes (SSI) for the website.
- Allow overriding options using the .htaccess configuration file. This box allows specifying the AllowOverride Apache directive. In general, .htaccess files use the same syntax as the main configuration files. What you can put in these files is determined by the AllowOverride directive. This directive specifies, in categories, what directives will be honored if they are found in a .htaccess file.
- Allow the following symlincs. Check this box to allow use of symbolic links for your website.
- Allow user directories. This box allows configuring the UserDir directive. Checking this box turns on the username-to-directory translations, i.e., to get to a user home directory, the ~user can be appended to a website domain in a browser, instead of specifying a full path that could be pretty long.
