  2. Click Modify. A new screen will appear.

Basic Information

This section allows you to edit the following options:

 

PropertyDescription
Primary Domain Use the text field to enter a new primary domain.
Username This value is used for logging into the cPanel interface and other services. Use the text field to enter a new username. Reseller usernames cannot be changed.
ALERT! Warning: If you must change the account username, we recommend keeping it the same length or shorter. Using a longer name could cause MySQL to truncate the account's database names and database usernames, which will cause problems.
Account owner List of resellers. Use the menu to select a new account owner.
Default Locale List of locales. Use the menu to select a new default locale.
cPanel Theme Use the menu to select a new cPanel theme. We strongly recommend using the x3 theme.

If you set different limits for each domain, default will display the limit set for the account's primary domain.

This limit includes local and outgoing email.  Select default, unlimited, or enter a new value in the text box. The default value is the value you set in Tweak Settings.
