Our hosting options give you an all-in-one control panel where you can give access to a user, pay your bill, or even add a DNS record. Check out our tutorials with straightforward instructions on many of the tasks performed within https://manage.liquidweb.com.
How To Add an Authorized User in Manage
For security, Liquid Web can only provide account information to the account owner and their authorized representatives. Whenever you need to give a third party access to your account, be it your developer, administrator, or billing or IT department, you should know that you don’t have to share your Manage credentials. You can easily add authorized users to your account — and configure specific roles for them — directly from within your Manage interface.
Liquid Web has introduced a new feature designed to simplify the removal of errant IP address blocks in the firewall, and allow customers to quickly remove their own address from within their Manage dashboard. In this manner, customers can remove blocks on their IP addresses even when they are unable to access WebHost Manager itself due to the block.
Pre-Flight Check
- These instructions are intended for domain names using Liquid Web’s nameservers.
- If the main domain uses other nameservers, such as at a registrar, you will need to log in there and add an “A” record for the hostname in the main domain’s DNS zone file. The record should point to the server’s primary IP address.
How to Enable Two-factor Authentication (2FA)
Pre-Flight Check
- These instructions are intended specifically for enabling two-factor authentication for Manage users.
What is Two-factor Authentication (2FA)?
Two-factor authentication (also known as 2FA) means that instead of just a password (one factor), you will need two factors (password, plus a rotating authentication token) to login to your Manage account. Only the correct combination of the first and second factors will allow you to log in. Two-factor authentication is more secure than one-factor authentication.
An Introduction to Manage
Manage is Liquid Web's Account and Cloud Management Portal. From Manage, it is possible to control your servers and services, whether your deployment is a single Storm® VPS (Virtual Private Server), or a combination of several Liquid Web Dedicated servers or other Clustered servers and services. Manage will help you administer your private network, VPN (Virtual Private Network), CDN (Content Delivery Network), firewalls, upgrades, and much more!
What is a Virtual IP (VIP)?
When you create a virtual IP (VIP) address with Liquid Web you will receive both a Public VIP and Private VIP. The public VIP can be configured on a Storm server just as a non-virtual, or standard, IP would be configured. Connecting to a public service, such as HTTP or FTP, on the Public VIP occurs just as it would on a standard IP.

Updating Your Root User and SSH Information in Manage
In order for our support staff to SSH into your server to address issues we’ll need your login details. If we do not have the your login details on file then our monitoring team will not be able to proactively fix any server problems that may arise. Additionally, if you open a ticket to address a specific issue, then the lack of accurate login details may cause a delay in support.
Before you can host a website on a domain, that domain has to be registered with the proper authorities. Domain registration through Liquid Web is a one-click process in our manage interface, but it may not be immediately obvious just where to do so. Here’s how:
