Not sure on subdomain..I know how to make a folder for them though



mkdir();


Haha :P

So i would just put that in my register code?

In the brackets would i put $user in there as the username form field?

I'll give it a try.

Still need the sub-domin thing.

Say your username variable is $username just do



mkdir("/home/cpanelusername/public_html/$username", 0777);
I think the function is.

where in register would i put it?

I'm not too sure I know you can do it as I've seen lots of automatic hosting and billing software that does it.. a cron that runs when sign ups are received or something if you could do that or do it manually? Also try looking at some of the coding in scripts that already have things like that running? Sorry what I just said probably was not much help at all! :P

Billing programs use WHM to make a hosting account not an ordinary sub-domain on a site. I no how to do i that way but it will waste much more space on my server.

Thanks for your help anyway <3
