1. Hi, last night I was trying to change the temp. url into the real one and probably did some mistake. Now I’m not able to enter my WP interface and I’m getting a 403 error or a blank screen… Please help me!!! 

   1. I recommend trying one of the other methods for updating your site URL such as the wp-config file or database.

      If your problems persist our WordPress Troubleshooting guide can help narrow the cause down further.

2. I don’t have a shared IP adress on my Cpanel, Only Dedicated IP Adress, Is that normal ? 

    

   1. Yes, that is normal based on the hosting plan you have, or if you purchased an SSL.

3. The ~username thing is what I was looking for.  Thanks!

4. I’ve the following code, which I am using for my android app. 

    

   $host=”……..”;

   $user=”myUsername”;

   $password=”myPass”;

   $db=”myDB”;

    

   $con=mysqli_connect($host,$user,$password,$db);

    

   Previously the hostname was written clearly. Now I am using cPanel and can’t figure out what value should be givn to $host variable.

   1. Typically you can use your domain as the hostname. But you can view your server’s hostname in AMP, in the Account Technical Details section.

5. How do I access my site using just the IP. I don’t want to change the bameservers until I have migrated WordPress.

   1. I suggest using a Host File modification to test your WordPress site.

      Otherwise, you will have to change the actual Site URL to your shared ip with a /~username at the end. For example:
      123.456.789/~user99

   thank You, 

   1. Yes, you can use your IP address and add /cpanel at the end. For example: 123.123.123.123/cpanel

7. I changed my layout to x3 and the shared ip address is not listed on cpanel under expand stats. Any help as to why that might be?

   1. Hello Bryan,

      That is quite unusual. If you have a custom server setup, you may not have a shared IP.

      If you are hosted on our servers, I recommend contacting Live Support so they can test your specific account.

      Thank you,

8. Hello,
    I am having an issue. My website shows to be hosted on a domain in cpanel, but when I try to connect to fillezilla to the domain name, it shows a different ip address. Also, when I ping the url, it displays a different ip address than the one from the domain address.   x-photo.ro
   What could be the problem? The ip address it shows is not from my server. 
   Thank you in advance. 

   1. Hello Cristina,

      Thank you for contacting us. I looked at your domain’s Nameservers, and they are pointed to Cloudflare.

      In this case I recommend using your “server name” instead of your domain, since it it routed through a 3rd party site. You can view your server name in your cPanel stats.

      Thank you,
      John-Paul

9. Why is there no ip address shown in my cpanel??

   1. Hello Bibek,

      Thank you for contacting us. I checked your cPanel, and it is not showing because you changed the default theme.

      You can still view your shared IP address by clicking the drop-down box below Switch Theme, and select x3.

      Thank you,

    1. Hello Darwin,

       Sorry for the problem that you’re having. Unfortunately, your question is very vague. “Why is my website not pulling sometimes?” Are you referring to not being able to get into your website? Do you have another problem? This article is about finding your Shared IP address. If you’re referring to another issue, please post a question in the appropriate area or as a comment under the article associated with your problem.

       Kindest regards,
       Arnel C.
