If you are using WordPress, you need to update the wp-config.php file with the temporary server URL. Here's how:
-
Access your website's files using an FTP client or a file manager in cPanel.
-
Locate the wp-config.php file in the root directory of your WordPress installation.
-
Open the wp-config.php file in a text editor.
- Look for the following lines in the file: around line 60 at the end of the last define(); line of code.
-
Replace yourdomain.com with the temporary URL you noted earlier, like this:
define('WP_SITEURL', 'https://yourhostingservername.com/~cpanelusername');
define('WP_HOME', 'https://yourhostingservername.com/~cpanelusername');om/~cpanelusername');
