How to get Cpanel to recognize Domain Name?

    I am brand new to Cpanel so sorry for the stupid question.

    I have a domain name with the DNS pointing to my host. I set up the new account in Cpanel and want to start uploading images to it.

    What button do I need to push to get this domain to show up on my host? :confused:

    Thanks

    There is a few things you may want to confirm;

    nameservers are pointed to your host's server IP's.
    Domain has DNS record with hosting servers.
    Also check if the domain is resolving to the server

    iptools.com will help ;)

    All you need to do is, add that domain to your Cpanel Account.
    There are 2 ways.One if to Prk the Domain and the Other Is to Addon Domain.

    Since the Nameservers are already Pointing, You can USe addon Domain and Then Upload the Images/Pages

    Hope this helps

    Thanks. The problem was that where I purchased the domain took much longer than expected to point the DNS. I just had to wait a bit longer.
    I appreciate your help.
