cPanel Quick Config – Quick Tip

Maybe I'm slow, but I just discovered "php.ini QuickConfig" in cPanel 11. It probably exists in prior versions too. It was hidden under "Software / Services". Most of the default settings should be fine, but you might want to disable register_globals if it isn't disabled already. This will prevent malicious visitors from setting your PHP variables themselves by attaching arguments to the URL. Just make sure you always use $_GET and $_POST where ever it's necessary.

  1. Ive just been reading about register_globals = off in a book as im learning php at the moment and it mentioned this, just checked in my cPanel too.

  2. And you found it in there? Nice and easy, eh? :)

  3. It is also easy to backup and transfer all your websites from one server to another server if you have cPanel installed-;”

  4. Thanks Libby :) Another perk of cPanel.
