Auto DNS creation - TheVP - 12-26-2014

Most other panels create working default DNS entries when a domain is added.
Is this something you consider implementing in Sentora?
It makes perfect sense for 99% of the users. So the impact of this would be a lot bigger than, say, a file manager or even RoundCube.

Or is there already an option to do it and maybe I'm missing something?

You can create DNS manually each time. We might improve it but it works already, also some users don't use DNS, you can always create external DNS.

My argument was that similar actions should be tied to some form of configuration.
Most of the time you end up clicking a link, then a dropdown, then "create records", then another link to navigate out of the page. That's 4 actions which are completely unnecessary for almost everyone.
Not to mention the uncomfortable feeling this causes in people who are not too familiar with DNS settings.

A few days ago a client of mine asked me "isn't it logical when adding a subdomain or a domain to just work?" And I had a hard time answering that, basically I ended up saying "yeah, sorry about that, that's just how it works for now."

I've got an open feature request on github for this, might want to add a comment throwing your support behind it.
