Overview

This application allows you to set up a specific subdomain to your domain.

A sub-domain represents a subsection of your domain that is hosted in its own folder. Consisting of the form anyword.domain.com, sub-domains allow you to replace the traditional www - domain prefix with almost any word or phrase.

Sub domains can be used to provide an inherent organization for your site or to provide your users with an easy-to-remember URL for a popular page on your site. You can use this tool to add new sub-domains or manage (rename, delete) existing ones.

Note: By deleting an existing subdomain, you will not delete its content. The tool will rename the respective folder to folder-inactive.

Add Subdomain

  1. Enter a subdomain name into blank field.
  2. Click Add Subdomain to complete the operation or Refresh to discard changes and enter a new subdomain name.

Manage Existing Subdomains

  • All existing subdomains are listed in the column Subdomain and their location is shown in Document Root column.
  • In order to rename your subdomain, click Rename button, enter a new name and click OK to complete the operation or Cancel to discard changes.
  • In order to delete a subdomain, click Delete and confirm the action in a dialog box.
