- Log into cPanel and click on the "Addon Domains" icon.
- In the "New Domain Name" field, enter the domain name you wish to add. You must enter the domain name without www. or http:// in front of it. If you wish to add "http://www.ossoba.net" then you would simply enter "ossoba.net".
- The Subdomain/FTP Username" field will be used for two different purposes. This field will set up both the new subdomain the addon domain will load from and also the FTP account that will have access to publish to the document root of this new addon domain. The field will automatically populate with a cPanel suggested value which will look like the domain you have entered without the TLD of the domain. If you were adding "ossoba.net", then the field would populate with "ossoba". This will cause cPanel to create a subdomain of ossoba.primarydomain.com from which your addon domain, ossoba.net, will load from. The FTP user name which is created will be ossoba@primarydomain.com and not ossoba@ossoba.net. This is because cPanel will not allow FTP accounts to be created that have usernames which match your addon domains.
- The "Document Root" field will allow you to set the location from which this new addon domain will load it's content from. If you wish to add ossoba.net as an addon domain, then this field will automatically populate with a cPanel suggested value which will look like "/public_html/ossoba.net". If you change the document root of your addon domain, then when the addon domain is created, this document root will be reflected in the creation of the subdomain and FTP username that are created for your addon domain. Note: Changing the document root of your addon domain does not change the subdomain or the FTP username that is created, it will only modify their document root. To see this, you would have to visit the "Subdomains" and "FTP Accounts" icons and view the document root information.
- Next, you will need to create a password for the FTP account that is created for your addon domain. You must enter this password twice so that cPanel may verify that you do infact know the password you have entered and that it does not contain any typos. You may choose any password you wish, it does not matter if the new password matches the password of other FTP accounts. If you wish to reset the password to this FTP account in the future, you will need to use the "FTP Accounts" icon in cPanel to do so.
- Finally, you are nearly finished. All you must do now is click on the "Add Domain!" button to complete the setup of your new addon domain.
