Sub Domain Uploads

[mike]

Once I have created a subdomain it seems to be under my main domain in a folder named www

 

Do I now setup folders inside there such as public_html, images, etc? to upload to the new subdomain name?

 

thanks for any help

Negative,

 

You do not need to go into the www area. Look in your public_html folder and you will see a new folder there with the same name as your subdomain name. Upload your files there.

Read more about subdomains on the TCH Help Web site page (click here to view).

 

Most important thing is: do NOT manually create the sub directory. If you have, go ahead and delete it using cPanel's File Manager. When you create a subdomain via cPanel, it will automatically create the required sub directory inside your public_html directory.

Thanks very much. I think I have it. So if I create a subdomain, say, awesomephotos.****, it will be under the public_html. So, in uploading photos to the new subdomain for the webpage, will I put them in the normal images folder or a new images folder under awesomephotos?

 

thanks.

I would think if you want to keep things for a subdomain together, you might create a new image directory under awesomephotos. You should still be able to access common images (logos, banners) for all your subdomains from the default images directory as well.
