    Hello all,

    I have a problem regarding to an addon domain.

    Under public_html folder there is a robots.txt file. This file is seen by google robots.txt checker both for my main domain and addon domain.

    I wanted to locate the sitemap file and disallow bots from my addon domain.

    Can someone help me with this?
    Kind regards.

    Do you have the addon domain in your public_html/? You can change the Document Root for the domain to be outside public_html/ on the same page in cPanel where you created it. Once you've changed the Doc Root, you'll need to move the contents of the addon domain's old directory in public_html/addondomain to the new location username/addondomain

    (Always make a backup of your account for safekeeping before making changes like this.)
