Adding a Site

Go to the Web > Sites > Add a site menu.

Tip

If you are starting from scratch you can take advantage of our application library by going to Web > Sites > Install an application.

Addresses

Adding all the addresses in this menu is mandatory to access them as sites:

for example, to access a website on www.example.org and example.org both addresses must be added,
entering your domain in the Domains menu is not enough either. Even for a domain using our DNS servers.

Also, if the domain does not use our DNS servers, you will need to create DNS records with the DNS provider.

Note

Adding the site will not create the root directory, it has to be created by remote access.

To create a catch-all, indicate *.example.org.
