Overview

You can use the  Site Publisher  feature (cPanel » Home » Domains » Site Publisher) to create a temporary website while you create a permanent one with other publishing tools, such as  WordPress® . When your new website is ready, you will need to remove the Site Publisher-generated website.
This document describes how to manually remove the Site Publisher-generated files.

Remove the Site Publisher-generated files_

To remove the Site Publisher-generated files from a domain or subdomain on an account, perform the following steps:
    .1Navigate to cPanel’s  Site Publisher  interface (cPanel » Home » Domains » Sile Publisher).
    .2Locate the desired domain or subdomain.
    .3Click the appropriate Website Directory. The  File Manager  interface will appear.
    .4Locate and remove the following files and directories, where username represents the account’s username:
/home/username/site_publisher/
/home/username/public_html/assets/
/home/username/public_html/css/
/home/username/public_html/font-awesome/
/home/username/public_html/img/
/home/username/public_html/js/
/home/username/public_html/COPYRIGHT
/home/username/public_html/LICENSE.txt
/home/username/public_html/sitemap.xml
/home/username/public_html/index.html
Warning:
If your new website uses any of the same directory names as the Site Publisher-generated website, do not delete those directories. Instead, manually delete the Site Publisher-generated files from those directories. You can use the file timestamps to determine those files.
