Question

How do I edit zone file templates?

Answer

Note: Domains can not be created directly on DNSOnly servers, so you will need to change the zone file template on the cPanel servers that are clustered to the DNSOnly server.

1. Log in to WHM as the root user
2. Navigate to Home / DNS Functions / Edit Zone Templates.
3. Click on the Standard template.
4. Add or adjust the DNS entries to match the template you want.
5. Click the blue Save button

You can find the template creation format in our documentation:
