Sometimes situations arise when a domain name has not yet been registered, DNS has not been updated, or you simply need to test the site. In this case, you can hardcode the site in the hosts file. Please note that until the DNS update, the site will only work on your computer. First of all, you need to find out the IP address of the site on our server. You can find it in panels management, in the "www-domains" section near your website address: Then we will directly write the IP address and website into the hosts file. If you use Windows OS, then it is located at

C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

(meaning that C: is the system drive on which the system is installed). If you use Linux/Unix-like operating systems (including MacOS), edit the file

/etc/hosts

with superuser privileges Add a line like this at the end of the file:

ip.address of testsite.com

where testsite.com is the domain name of your site, and site ip.address is the IP address of our server, which we learned above. When the DNS is updated, we recommend removing your site from the hosts file.
