The Virtualizor account settings page lets you update your personal details, change your password, switch the interface language, enable dark mode, and manage API keys for programmatic VPS management.
How to access account settings
- Log in to the Virtualizor Enduser Panel.
- Click your username or the user icon in the top-right corner of the page.
- Select Settings or User Settings from the drop-down menu. You can also find this option in the left-hand sidebar under your account name.
What you can change
- Display name: the name shown in the panel header
- Email address: the email address associated with your Virtualizor account, used for notifications
- Password: your Virtualizor panel login password. Enter your current password, then type and confirm the new one.
- Preferred language: change the panel interface language from the language drop-down
After making changes, click Save to apply them.
How to enable dark mode
- On the User Settings page, locate the Theme or Appearance option.
- Select Dark Mode from the theme drop-down or toggle.
- Click Save. The interface will switch to a dark colour scheme immediately.
API keys
If you want to manage your VPS programmatically — for example, to automate start/stop operations or query resource usage from a script — Virtualizor provides a REST API. API access is authenticated with a key pair.
- On the User Settings page (or from the sidebar), go to Client API Keys.
- Click Add Key.
- Give the key a name and click Save.
- Virtualizor will display the API Key and API Password. Copy both values and store them securely — the API Password is only shown once.
- Use these credentials with the Virtualizor API endpoint to authenticate your requests.
Security reminder: API keys grant full access to your VPS management. Keep them secret. If an API key is compromised, return to Client API Keys, delete the affected key, and generate a new one immediately.
Troubleshooting
- Settings changes do not save: make sure all required fields are filled in correctly. If you are changing the password, confirm that the new password meets any minimum length or complexity requirements shown on the form.
- Dark mode option is not visible: the theme option availability depends on the Virtualizor version installed by TPC Hosting. If you do not see it, the current version may not support user-selectable themes.
- API key not working: confirm that you are sending requests to the correct Virtualizor API endpoint and using the API Key and API Password in the correct fields. Refer to the official Virtualizor API documentation for the exact request format.
