cPanel decided to provide a cut-down home page for WHM for v76+. It makes finding plugins (such as csf) a pain. Here is a simple way to add a Plugins link to the new homepage:

Some caveats:

• DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK! Neither we nor cPanel will likely help if it goes horribly wrong!
• The change will be overwritten when the next version of cPanel is released or if you run:

  /scripts/upcp --force

• It might break your WHM home page
• It might not work in the future

OK, so here’s what to do:

1. SSH into your server as root (or use the Terminal app from WHM!)
2. Create a file called /usr/src/main.tmpl.patch
3. Add the following to that file as-is:

   213a214,225
   > [% IF (Whostmgr.check_flag('addons')) -%]
   > [% varcache.set('locale_str',locale.makevar("Plugins")) %]
   > <li class="application">
   > <a href="[% cp_security_token %]/scripts/command?PFILE=Plugins">
   > <img class="mr-10" src="[% Whostmgr.get_icon_url('icons/plugins.png') %]" alt="[% varcache.locale_str -%]" aria-hidden="true">
   > <div class="application-details">
   > <div class="application-title">[% varcache.locale_str %]</div>
   > <span class="application-description">[% varcache.locale_str %]</span>
   > </div>
   > </a>
   > </li>
   > [% END %]
   

4. Run the following command:

   patch -bp0 /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/templates/menu/main.tmpl /usr/src/main.tmpl.patch

5. That should be it

To restore the page back, either:

• Restore the backup created by the patch command:

  cp /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/templates/menu/main.tmpl.orig /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/templates/menu/main.tmpl

or:

• Run upcp:

  /scripts/upcp --force

Once again, you do this at your own risk. Have fun!
