twilightwebdesign Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Hi Everyone, I've just found out that I need to make some domains (free subdomains) require a hosting package in the order. Otherwise I get people ordering free subdomains with no hosting! Any ideas on how to do this? Thanks, Matt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickendippers Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 *confused* Subdomains can only be setup on a hosting package. Configuration > Products/Service > Details Tab. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorro67 Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Are you offering people a free sub-domain (eg on your domain) as a construction location, prior to a site 'go-live" on the correct domain name? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twilightwebdesign Posted May 12, 2008 Author Share Posted May 12, 2008 I'm offering a free sub domain as an alternative to using a proper full domain. If the client doesn't wish to pay extra for a full personal domain name. However if a client decides they are ordering the sub domain from the domain page, they must also order a hosting package, otherwise its useless really @ chickendippers - subdomains are not compulsory, or usually ordered with a particular hosting package. So it's much more particular, to use it as a domain option. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverNodashi Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Add the sub domain as any other domain, but don't use a registrar. If you use something like cPanel or Plesk (I'm not sure about the others), then the subdomain will automatically be added to your server's DNS. We also do this for people who want to try out our services before paying for it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
