    Hi,

    I resell quite a few domain names. I've tried to figure this out, but cannot. Is there a way I can automatically provision skeleton files for addon domains/subdomains.

    For example, I'd like to create a landing page for domains for sale, if I addon a domain - the skeleton files would be provisioned to include this landing page, so anyone visiting the domain would see it. I understand that a new cPanel account is provisioned this way, however, I don't intend to create a new cPanel account for each domain, this would be ridiculous.

    Hi @inteldigital

    I believe what you're looking for is the Web Template Editor. You can create placeholder pages for domains which have no site created.

    Our documentation on this can be found here:

    Web Template Editor

    Thank you,

    Hi Lauren,

    I'm not sure. For example, when I addon a domain into my account, if I go to it (with no files in the directory) it shows the directory listing ie.
    /
    /cgi-bin

    and I can click into the directories. How do I make this stop and show a 404 page or some sort of default page?

    Hello,

    If you attempt to use the skeleton directory for this does the same behavior continue? This is noted in the Web Template Editor documentation -

    Skeleton Directory - Version 68 Documentation - cPanel Documentation

    Thank you,
