Question 269707 in cPanel Question posted in
The official documentation can be seen here.

How do I add another domain but not to the public_html folder in cpanel?

When I try to add another domain to the account the public_html folder is already grayed out near the document root input. how can I put the domain as a sibling folder to the public_html folder?

What I see

So I will have 2 domains like this

1st domain - *root*/public_html/

2nd domain - *root*/anotherdomain.com/

    A guy named cPanelRex from another place answered my question. I need to enable something from the higher-level account:

    WHM >> Tweak Settings by the "Restrict document roots to public_html" toggle. https://docs.cpanel.net/whm/server-configuration/tweak-settings/#domains

    You can add it as Addon domain.
    In previous versions of Cpanel, the Addon domains had a separate tab underneath Domains tab, but in current versions all the domains are gathered in one place.

    1. Click "Domains" under the "Domains" section.
    2. Click the "Create A New Domain" button.
    3. Enter the domain name to add in the "Domain" text box.
    4. Deselect the "Share document root (/home/username/public_html) with “domain.tld”." option.
    5. Enter the directory where you want the files for this domain to exist.
    6. Click the "Submit" button.
