Adding a subdomain to an account that points to another account

Hello,

I have two different accounts on my server, let's call them "domain1.com" and "domain2.com"

I want to create a subdomain on "domain1" account like this: "subdomain.domain2.com" that points to "domain1.com/subdir"

Of course, these two accounts belong to different users so when I try to create the subdomain I get the error:

The domain “subdomain.domain2.com” may not be created by “domain1” because “domain2.com” is already owned by another user.

I know it can be done somehow because I had already done this in the past. I just don't remember how.

Hey there! In WHM >> Tweak Settings you'd want to enable this option:

"Allow cPanel users to create subdomains across accounts"

and that should let you configure things as you expect.

Yes! That worked like a charm! Thank you cPRex

I'm glad that's all it took!
