How to add a private repository from Github to cPanel Version Control

Sat, 17 Jan 2026 23:59:25 GMT

Note: Replace all RED CAPITALIZED TEXT with your/your repository's information.

If using Github Desktop:

In repository (header) > Repository > Repository Settings
Remote > Primary Remote Repository (origin) URL
Make sure that repository URL is HTTPS://

cPanel Version Control:

Navigate to your website's cPanel
Open Terminal in cPanel
Enter these commands in the following order (ENTER after each):

ssh-keygen -t rsa -f ~/.ssh/KEYFILENAME -b 4096 -C "USERNAME@ROOT.DOMAIN"

KEYFILENAME can be anything. I advise making it similar if not identical to your repository name.

touch ~/.ssh/config
chmod 0600 ~/.ssh/config
chown USERNAME:USERNAME ~/.ssh/config

Navigate to SSH Access > Manage SSH Keys

REPOSITORY Key > Manage > Authorize
REPOSITORY Key > View/Download > Copy key

Navigate to your Github > Repository > Settings

Deploy Keys > Add deploy key
Title: [anything]
Key: [paste from earlier ("copy key")]

Allow write access

Navigate to your website's cPanel > File Manager

Navigate to .ssh (folder) > config (file)

Add to file:

                        Host REPOSITORY.github.com
   			User git
			Hostname github.com
			IdentityFile ~/.ssh/KEYFILENAME
    			IdentitiesOnly yes

Save and close

Navigate back to cPanel Terminal

Test if the repository works with ssh -Tv git@REPOSITORY.github.com
If it outputs by saying Hi REPOSITORY/USERNAME then it's successful. Don't worry about additional messages.

Navigate to GitVersion Control

Create the repository
For the repository URL, make sure the format is: ssh://REPOSITORY.github.com/USERNAME/REPOSITORY

Then you're done! All updates pulled from Github Version Control in cPanel should now work with your private repository :)

Javascript for changing image and text at the same time on click

Tue, 18 Feb 2025 16:17:48 GMT

I don't write a lot of Javascript code, but a friend wanted some help with website stuff and I'm always happy to help, so I wrote some code for her. I'm sharing it here for archival reasons, but also if anyone happens to stop by and is interested in implementing this logic themselves.

You will need some familiarity with HTML, CSS, and algorithmic code for this. I will not be explaining it in detail here.

What this code does: For each in-page click with the corresponding ID, a random image will be selected and changed per click. At the same time, text elsewhere on the page will also change, per the webmaster's preset settings.

What this code is for: Websites that utilize iframes as internal navigation, in order to allow the title of the page, not within the iframe, to change; simultaneously this allows the random image to change with each new iframe navigation without leaving or refreshing the page.
