Using Feature Manager
Creating a Feature List
Feature lists are used to determine what features are available in a specific hosting package. Here's how you can create a new feature list:
- Once you are in the Feature Manager, enter a name for your new feature list in the Create a new Feature List box.
- Click on the Add button.
- You will be presented with a list of all the features that you can enable or disable. Check the boxes next to the features you want to enable.
- Click on the Save button once you are done.
Naming Feature Lists
It's a good practice to name your feature lists according to the packages they will be associated with. This will make it easier for you to manage them in the future.
Editing a Feature List
If you want to edit an existing feature list, here's how you can do it:
- In the Feature Manager, select the feature list you want to edit from the Manage a Feature List dropdown menu.
- Click on the Edit button.
- You will be presented with a list of all the features. Check or uncheck the boxes next to the features to enable or disable them.
- Click on the Save button once you are done.
Deleting a Feature List
To delete a feature list, simply select the list you want to delete from the Manage a Feature List dropdown menu and click on the Delete button.
Deleting Feature Lists
Be careful while deleting feature lists. Once a list is deleted, it cannot be restored and all packages using that list will lose their associated features.
