What is Plesk?
Plesk is a powerful, yet user-friendly hosting account dashboard. Plesk has a simple-to-use interface that makes editing your hosting details extremely easy.
What can Plesk do?
With Plesk, which is included with all HelioHost hosting accounts, you can:
- Install Blog, Forum, CMS, or other software with the Softaculous auto-installer service
- Install software using Plesk Applications Installer ('Plesk > Applications')
- Update your HelioHost account information (email address / password)
- Create and manage FTP accounts for access using external FTP clients ('Plesk > Websites & Domains > [domain] > Dashboard tab > Connection Info for FTP, Database')
- Use the built-in Plesk File Manager ('Plesk > Files')
- View error logs for your site
- Password protect directories on your site
- Create MySQL / PostgreSQL databases/users
- Edit SQL tables using phpMyAdmin ('Plesk > Databases')
- Create and manage unlimited email accounts for your domain(s)
- Check webmail using the preinstalled RoundCube web interface, or install SquirrelMail or AfterLogic
- Set-up e-mail clients (such as Outlook, Gmail, Thunderbird, or iOS Mail on iPhone/iPad) for use with your e-mail addresses (through POP3/SMTP)
How do I access Plesk?
To access Plesk, log in to the HelioHost website at heliohost.org or heliohost.org/login and click on the Plesk button.
We strongly recommend that you do not bookmark your Plesk dashboard URL. Using the Plesk URL without first logging in at heliohost.org or heliohost.org/login will not track your logins and risks your account being suspended for inactivity after 30 days.
