WhateverJames Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 (edited) I made sure I have uploaded to public_html and none of the other folders. I'm just testing it for now. I have a blank index.html page to get rid of the cpanel page that comes up and also a picture that I uploaded. I don't have the domain name set up yet so here is the IP http://208.76.82.11 index page should be showing http://208.76.82.11/index.html picture should be showing up http://208.76.82.11/road2.jpg I've used tch before but it has been a year or two since I've had a website and I'm kind of lost. Thanks for your help. Edited November 6, 2007 by WhateverJames Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just_Rob Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Should be http://208.76.82.11/~username if I remember right. So the URL to your pic would be http://208.76.82.11/~username/road2.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nortk Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 (edited) When you have shared hosting, it means a lot of other users also are hosted at the same IP address. That's why it's necessary to specify your cpanel username if you use the IP address to access your site. Once you get a domain name set up, you should be able to access your site using your domain name, in which case you would NOT need to include your cpanel username.
