Taking Back Control: Granular Sitejet Management on cPanel Servers

The hosting landscape is constantly evolving. Recently, WebPros has heavily integrated Sitejet into the core cPanel experience. While Sitejet is a powerful builder, it’s not the right fit for every hosting provider. Many companies have already invested in competing site builders, prefer to keep their interface lightweight, or are looking forward to WebPros’ own upcoming “Nova” builder and don’t want to invest in Sitejet in the interim.

The challenge for sysadmins is that simply disabling Sitejet globally via the WHM Feature Manager does not affect already deployed websites, but it does prevent customers who are still developing and continuously editing their published Sitejet sites from using the editor. To avoid back-and-forth support tickets to re-enable the editor for those users, we need a way to opt out new users while keeping active users’ editors functional.
