cPanel, Logging in to cPanel
If you're not the site owner, you might not need to log into cPanel itself. If you're contributing content to a specific website (for example, a WordPress blog, a Drupal database, or a forum), you may need to log into that website instead. Check with the site owner to see where you need to log in. cPanel, Getting access and setting permissions has more information.
