How To: Manage Subdomains

Subdomains are domains with the format sub.mydomain.com.

By default, a subdomain’s docroot is set to use /home/{unixuser}/{domain.com}/html/{sub}, replacing {sub} with the corresponding subdomain prefix. Subdomains also inherit the PHP version of the parent domain. The docroot and PHP version for the subdomain can be customized after creation.
