hello, I have created a package in WHM with 10 add-on domains allowed to host in single hosting account and set 1 FTP account only. As i don't wish to create multiple ftp accounts in same hosting for multiple domains. However, when i try to add a add-on domain, i got ftp account limitation error as the cpanel system try to create separate ftp for add-on domain. I have used many hosting providers who already have same functionality. Please help me how to do it. Thank you.

  Hello :), While creating addon domain DO NOT tick " Create an FTP account associated with this Addon Domain. " options so that cPanel will not create FTP account for your addon domain.

  Hello :) You can update the account to the Paper Lantern theme to utilize the updated "Addon Domains" interface that allows you to disable the FTP account creation: Addon Domains - Documentation - cPanel Documentation Theme modifications are possible via the "WHM >> Account Functions >> Modify an Account" option in Web Host Manager. Thank you.
