How to suspend and unsuspend accounts in WHM

Suspending an account

When you suspend an account, its web site is no longer visible on the Internet. Instead, visitors to the web site see the suspended account page. Customers who have suspended accounts cannot access their account using FTP, SSH, or cPanel.

To suspend an account, follow these steps:

In the search box at the upper left of the WebHost Manager screen, start typing suspension, and then click Manage Account Suspension when it becomes visible.
To provide a reason for the suspension, type it in the Reason (if suspending) text box.
Select the account you want to suspend, and then click Suspend.

Unsuspending an account

When a customer resolves the issue or issues that led to account suspension, you can unsuspend the account. To do this, follow these steps:

In the search box at the upper left of the WebHost Manager screen, start typing suspension, and then click Manage Account Suspension when it becomes visible.
Select the account you want to unsuspend, and then click Unsuspend.

Viewing a list of suspended accounts

To view a list of all suspended accounts, follow these steps:

In the search box at the upper left of the WebHost Manager screen, start typing suspend, and then click List Suspended Accounts when it becomes visible.

Customizing the suspended account page

You can customize the page that visitors see when they view a suspended account's web site. To do this, follow these steps:

In the search box at the upper left of the WebHost Manager screen, start typing template, and then click Web Template Editor when it becomes visible:

WebHost Manager - Web Template Editor
On the Web Template Editor page, click the Account Suspended tab.

Customize the suspended account page:
You can modify the HTML code directly. When you are done, click Save.
Alternatively, if you have your own custom suspended account page, you can upload it. Click Browse, locate the file on your local computer, and then click Upload Template.
