cPanel is a leading web hosting control panel based on Linux, widely used to manage a web hosting server’s resources. To simplify the process of managing a website hosted on a server, it offers various automation tools and a graphical user interface (GUI) that are integrated together. cPanel is built using a three-tier structure, which provides features and easy functionality for website owners, resellers, and administrators.

Remember that once you change the language of the interface, a cookie is set by the system in your browser that will expire after one year. Each time you log in to webmail from a new browser, you must perform this step, whether the cookie expires or you delete cookies. Additionally, there is an option to change the login interface locale for Webmail, WHM, or cPanel during the login process, which will change the interface’s default language.
If the Accept-Language
header of your browser is set, the locale that corresponds to your browser setting will be displayed by the login interface. If the locale requested by the browser header is not available, the login interface will default to English.
