Properly use a Shared Domain - TGates - 03-07-2015

Shared Domain Usage:
The shared domain feature allows you to share a domain with all of your clients.
Your clients can use the domain(s) you have added to Shared Domains in the Apache Config module.
The can make a domain using the Domain Manager module (Not the Sub-Domain module!) by simply adding their own 'sub-domain' including the shared domain [username].shareddomain.tld which will work for them just like a normal domain.

They can also add sub-domains to it in the Sub-Domain module if their package allows it:
 [subdomain].[username].shareddomain.tld

It's very useful for free accounts so your clients don't need to buy a domain!

(I use this feature a lot for testing accounts and sites.)

Add your shared domain to Module Admin > Apache Config > Shared Domains
Add domains like so: (Do NOT add .tld)
Code:
no-ip,dyndns,domain1,domain2

Add the new subdomain with the shared domain as a Domain in the Domain Manager:
Code:
Domain Name: shared.domain1.com

IMPORTANT: Then go to DNS Manager and select shared.domain1.com and make the default entries.
