    Hello

    I started recently using cpanel, I created two accounts for two sites, for each account I have file manager to access the site files, now my question is: How to copy site files from one account to the other?

    Thanks in advance
    Jack

    You can copy the files from one account to another using the FTP or if you have an access to the server then you can copy it through SSH.

    via ssh would be the fastest

    # cp -r /home/username/public_html/ /home/otherusername/public_html

    # chown -R otherusername.otherusername /home/otherusername/public_html

    # chown otherusername.nobody /home/otherusername/public_html

    :)

    Thank you very much, I'm going to try this SSH method.
