Let’s move on to deeper understanding of the topic: 

Removing a domain redirect in cPanel involves a few steps, but it’s generally straightforward. Here’s a detailed guide:

  1. Access cPanel: Log in to your cPanel account using your credentials. This typically involves going to your hosting provider’s website, logging in, and navigating to the cPanel section.
  2. Locate the Domains Section: Once logged in, find the “Domains” section within your cPanel dashboard. This section might be labeled differently depending on your hosting provider’s interface, but it usually contains all domain-related settings.
  3. Select Redirects: Within the Domains section, look for the option labeled “Redirects” or something similar. Click on it to proceed to the domain redirection settings.
  4. Identify the Redirect: In the Redirects interface, you’ll see a list of all existing domain redirects configured for your account. Find the redirect corresponding to the domain you want to remove.
  5. Edit or Remove the Redirect: Depending on the cPanel version and interface, you may have different options for removing the redirect. Look for an “Edit” or “Delete” button or link next to the redirect entry.
    • If there’s an “Edit” option, click on it to modify the redirect settings. Look for an option to disable or remove the redirect and follow the prompts to save your changes.
    • If there’s a “Delete” option, simply click on it to remove the redirect. You might be asked to confirm the action, so make sure to confirm if prompted.
  6. Save Changes: After editing or removing the redirect, don’t forget to save your changes. Look for a “Save” or “Save Changes” button typically located at the bottom of the page.
  7. Verify Removal: Once you’ve saved the changes, it’s a good idea to verify that the redirect has been removed successfully. You can do this by visiting the domain in a web browser and ensuring that it no longer redirects to another URL.
  8. Clear Cache (if necessary): Sometimes, your browser may cache the redirect, causing it to persist even after removal. If you still see the redirect after removing it, try clearing your browser cache or accessing the site from a different browser or device.
  9. Final Checks: After removing the redirect, double-check any other settings or configurations related to the domain to ensure that everything is as intended.

By following these steps, you should be able to successfully remove a domain redirect in cPanel. If you encounter any difficulties or have questions about specific settings, don’t hesitate to reach out to your hosting provider’s support team for assistance.
