Weebly Automation
When ordering Weebly as an addon to a hosting account, WHMCS and MarketConnect fully automates the Weebly account setup process.
Control Panel Details
For website publishing automation, the following details apply:
| Control Panel | Details |
|---|---|
| cPanel & WHM | WHMCS will create a dedicated FTP account within cPanel for Weebly’s use, and it will provision the account with these FTP credentials. When a user publishes their Weebly website, it will connect to and publish the website using these FTP credentials. |
| Plesk | The FTP credentials will default to the domain, username, and password from the parent Plesk product with a publishing path in the httpdocs directory. |
| DirectAdmin | The FTP credentials will default to the domain, username, and password from the parent DirectAdmin product with a publishing path in the public_html directory. |
| Other Control Panels | The FTP credentials will default to the domain, username, and password of the Weebly service’s parent product. If they are different, you must update the FTP details manually (see below). |
Updating FTP Publishing Credentials
FTP publishing credentials reside in custom fields that you can view and update when managing Weebly within the Admin Area.
To update the FTP publishing credentials in the Admin Area:
- Modify the FTP Host, FTP Username, FTP Password, and FTP Path values.
- Click Save Changes.
- Click Update FTP Publishing Credentials to push the new details to Web.com Site Builder.
Admin Management Actions
For any Weebly order, admins can perform the following actions in the Admin Area:
- Manage Order — Click to perform single sign-on into Weebly for the website.
- Update FTP Publishing Credentials — Click to update the client FTP details (see above).
Client Management Actions
When logged in to the Client Area, if a customer has an active Weebly service, they will be provided with a link to manage their website that will perform Single Sign-On and take them directly to the Weebly Control Panel to create and manage their site.
Client Area Promotions
MarketConnect supports displaying Weebly promotions in the Client Area homepage, the shopping cart, and when managing a hosting product that does not already include Weebly.
Your customers can click on any of these promotions or go to Website & Security > Website Builder to purchase Weebly.
