Enter a password and repeat the same password in the Password fields. Or generate a password by clicking Password Generator and cPanel will create a password for you. Note: The password strength indicator will evaluate your password strength. A 100 score indicates a very secure password, while 0 indicates a weak password.
Select a Directory, if access to a specific directory is required. The user will only have access to the specified directory and subdirectories below it. To assign a user to one directory, use this format: public_html/example_name. Replace example_name with your directory name. You can use an existing directory (make sure the spelling is correct) or create a new one in this step. Note: cPanel automatically populates the Directory field with a subdirectory of the public_html directory in the format /[your domain name]/[ftp login name]. Providing access to the public_html directory is only recommended if the user needs full access to the website files.
Select a disk space Quota, if required. The default is Unlimited.
Click the Create FTP Account button.
The new user account will appear under FTP Accounts.
To verify a user's directory path, click the Ellipsis in the path structure.
You can now give the new user their login, password, and FTPS settings for their FTP client.
Note: You cannot edit a user's login or directory path after creating a user, you must delete the user and create again. Only the password and quota can be changed.
