    Default cPanel and Wildcard DNS Record

    Dear cPanel,
    I edited cPanel hosting powered site to add asterisk character for Wildcard DNS Record at httpd.conf vhost setting and update the zone file wildcard accordingly. But after edited, the site can reach with "www" prefix and without "www" i was seeing cPanel default which is same as server page. Are there any special things to take extra tweaking when i wanted to add Wildcard DNS Record features to vhost site?

    Example for this time being,

    thanks

    Edit the dns zone through WHM.

    If it still doesnt work paste your virtual host entry here.
